Things You Didn't Know That Changed Your E-Life

TacitaTacita <3s Xynthin 4eva!!!11
With the purpose both of educating and amusing, this thread is a list of those things - shortcuts and the like - that you didn't know for ages and someone told you once as if it was terribly obvious. Things that totally changed how you went about whatever that thing was that you were doing.

That's an awful explanation, so let's start you off with some examples:

In the Catacombs, you can just target gar to catch all of them. (Undead also works, but it gets the gatekeepers too).

You can target/hand kephera to Cyarawotsit using give kephera to overseer.

The Nai'Dorin ritual can be speeded up if you get spinnerets from Tolborolla as well.

You can bookbind multiple sheets of vellum simultaneously.

    God realms can be entered and exited by simply typing "Enter" at the appropriate location.

    The divine voice of Avechna, the Avenger reverberates powerfully, "Congratulations, Morkarion, you are the Bringer of Death indeed."

    You see Estarra the Eternal shout, "Morkarion is no more! Mourn the mortal! But welcome True Ascendant Karlach, of the Realm of Death!

    Oh yeah, enter portal works for basically any special exit.

    Along the same lines, -nothing- is better when interacting with ridiculously-named mobs than just using their race.

    I tend to use the races during revolts - so much faster and easier.
    Never put passion before principle.  Even if you win, you lose.

    If olive oil comes from olives, where does baby oil come from?

    If vegetarians eat vegetables, what do humanitarians eat?

    I am silly and like to use the actual exit name, but "enter exit" also works and I find it greatly amusing.

    WHATIS and WHATCURES.

    Hitting X to check exits rather than doing QL.

    The pathway hub in the UV and West Razines.

    LOOK THROUGH PORTAL also works for any special exit when you want to gank someone.

  • Yeah, I'm going to be having a chat about syntax with a couple of people about offering multiple corpses at once. I actually look through the offerings list on a semi-regular basis, and I'm sure it's not a lot of fun to scroll through twenty pages of individual offerings of different sorts of fish.
    I'm Lucidian. If I don't get pedantic every so often, I might explode.

    Don't worry. They'll say, 'Oh, that's SO much easier, thank you!', and then promptly forget.

    Being able to check the news via NSTAT and READNEWS PUBLIC 123, etc. without physically having to be in a newsroom.

    (Ahh, newbie days...)

    Tonight amidst the mountaintops
    And endless starless night

    Before an earthly flight

  • One of the most important ones:

    You can give items through Selfishness if you use CONFIRM. For example: "give sphere to fraesic confirm".
  • ZouviqilZouviqil Queen of Uberjerkiness
    You don't have to type out names when it comes to most commands.

    SAY TO ZOU
    GIVE CAKE TO ZOU
    KICK AVU
    TELL AVU

    If you use mudlet, tab completion helps there too.

    As a god, this makes my e-life easier, too.

    Hmm! Careful, that might give us some ideas.

    Confirming my life farming God Essence became much better when I learned this.

    Found that out today, ha!
  • Does anyone know that their medallion is a CUBIX?!






    Okay. Let's see... No, I have nothing. I need this thread to survive Lusternia. ;_;
  • Learning how to emote in the middle of a SAY.

    Figuring out how to make a long alias to make shopkeeping easier. (For ages I typed *everything* out)

    Path find, Path walk + Landmarks. (I'm so lazy and my map sucks)

    Using II to search your items in hand. Like, that's easily the most useful thing I have ever learned. II ORIGAMI lists all my origami and it's amazing.

    AND Coding trigger/alias toggles. Seriously, best.
    Mysrai, the Beckoner Beyond the Maze intones, "Continue to manifest the paradigm of working, My Alary."
    The Divine voice of Camus the Cinderfly echoes in your head, "Thank you, once-body. I am happy that I fell into that eye."

    For further mind-blowing, try READLOG GLOMDORING 0 1 FAVOUR, which will show all notes with the word "favour" in it.

  • flyers shows you the people flying above

    who here shows the people in your room, in a nice list without titles (although I think GMCP also offers this info now, for the script-inclined)
  • You can do WHO <name> to see just the who test for that person. With thirdeye, this gives you no EQ scrying on people who are not cloaked and are on the same plane.

    You can do MAP <#> to show the ingame map for a room with a given vnumber. Try MAP 6!

    You can do MAP <area> <x> <y> <z> to show the map for a given room that you know the area name and coordinates of. Try MAP CELEST 0 1 0


  • Vadi.

    Probably changed my e-life more than anything else. Though, that's no secret.

    RN - read the first currently unread news post.

    RM - read the first currently unread message.

    TELLS and SHOWTELL # - lists the past 20 tells you've received and shows the one listed in full, respectively.

    GUILDTELLS/CLANTELLS/etc - lists the last 20 things said on an aether.
