Being that we're in beta and changing many things all the time, it's possible that our help files can contain information that's not current, or might not contain enough information. One system that the other IRE games have had great success with a help file edit suggestion system, so we've brought it over here. If you find a help file error/typo/lack of information, you can use the HELPMOD command to suggest a change.

HELPMOD LIST
- List all helpmod proposals you have drafted or submitted.

HELPMOD EDIT <file>
- Enter the editor to work on a helpmod proposal for the specified file.

HELPMOD VIEW <file>
- View the text of your help file proposal, as well as any comments that have been made.

HELPMOD DIFF <file>
- This is like view, except it will highlight the differences between your proposal and the existing help text.

HELPMOD SUBMIT <file>
- Submit the helpmod proposal for review by the administration.

HELPMOD COMMENT <file> : <comment>
- Add a comment to your helpmod proposal for the administration to see. The colon is important to mark the beginning of your comment!

HELPMOD DELETE <file>
- Delete your helpmod proposal.
