Appearance commands: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 20:13, 21 December 2004

Appearance commands are a series of chat commands that many Playerworlds which still use the Basic systems offer to enable Players to change their character's look. Almost all worlds offer the following four, followed by a filename, that will be used to set the respective property.

sethead
setbody
setshield
setsword

These allow for the player's basic attributes to be changed, but not for the colours of the player's body to be customized. It is fairly hard to document these, as there are so many different systems in use, but the global syntax setpart color is in fairly high use. part can be substituted with skin (or glove on some servers), coat, sleeves, shoes, or belt, and color with white, yellow, orange, pink, red, darkred, lightgreen, green, darkgreen, lightblue, blue, darkblue, brown, cynober, purple, darkpurple, lightgray, gray, black or transparent (which displays as black and has done for a while now). Other worlds use the syntax /part color, others set part color, /set part color, and some, like Graal: The Adventure, don't offer these commands at all. Remember to check these commands, as they vary across worlds.

TODO: Is setpart really that common? Back when I played, we had tailor shops and stuff! Also, the lists should go to gscript docu. --Loriel
