Talk to Me!
in KidPub Press Headquarters
We sometimes spend hours talking to each other in KidMud. Here are the basic commands to use to make yourself heard.
" (The double quote symbol)
Use this to say something to everyone in the room.
For example:
"Hello everyone! You say, "Hello everyone!"
` (Back tick symbol)
Use this to say something to a particular person.
For example:
`Toby Your coat is looking quite glossy today! You [to Toby]: Your coat is looking quite glossy today!
: (Colon)
Non-verbal, everyone sees you do something
For example:
:does the biscuit dance Toby does the biscuit dance
:: (Two colons)
Non-verbal, with possesion. Everyone sees something happen
::'s tail wags furiously Toby's tail wags furiously
think
Think something out loud.
For example:
think I wonder where my tea is? Wizard . o O ( I wonder where my tea is? )
whisper
Whisper something that only the one whispered to can hear
For example:
whisper I think he's a bit afraid of you to Angela You whisper to Angela, "I think he's a bit afraid of you"
[how]
Say something out loud in a specific way
For example:

I think everyone on Authors' Notes have mastered these techniques. But nevertheless, it should be usefull to newcomers.
I am who I am, and nobody can change that. Nobody will ever again change that, or me.
For some reason, the program is not allowing me to whisper, and to set my arrive slider, etc., 0_o
Oh yeah, and Perry, I got KidMud working! I just needed to switch to my old computer which can't really do anything... But thanks for your help, though :D
