7.13 Aliases and Targeting
Starmourn has a basic internal system with which you can set aliases and targets that will be available to your character regardless of any client you use. Aliases ------- An alias is shorthand that you can specify to use in place of a lengthier command, making things quicker for typing. For example, instead of typing SHIP DISEMBARK you could make an alias DIS to type faster. SETALIAS Create a new alias, or change an existing one. CLEARALIAS Delete an alias. ALIASLIST Display all your aliases. Targeting --------- Our targeting system allows you to define a simple variable which you can combine with an alias. To do this, use SETTARGET or ST. To combine it with an alias, you use the word TARGET. SETTARGET -or- ST Specify a target Putting it all together, this example will set up a way for you to go around punching mice. Create an alias: SETALIAS PT punch target Define the target: SETTARGET mouse Use the alias: PT Change the target: SETTARGET bug Clear the target: SETTARGET none For more robust alias, trigger, and variable options, check out the settings in our Nexus client or your preferred MUD client!
