- | * [[:player_commands#bind]] - permanently attach a command, or set of commands, to a single key - see also [[guides:useful_bind_examples|Useful Bind Examples]] | + | ====Meta-command (')==== |
+ | Any command listed by the use of help (? key) can be used by spelling it out after the meta-command is issued. For example, you can use the command say either by hitting the double-q (" key) or by issuing the command string 'say. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====Binding commands ('bind and 'unbind)==== | ||
+ | You may [[:player_commands#bind|bind]] any key with a complex command. For example, you could bind the use of the meditation skill to the key "m." To do this first type: | ||
+ | |||
+ | 'bind use_skill meditation | ||
+ | |||
+ | then press <return>. The game will then ask you for a key to bind the command to, you then hit m. You can also rebind this key to something else later if you wish too. Issue the command: | ||
+ | |||
+ | 'unbind reset | ||
+ | |||
+ | To totally reset bindings on keys. | ||
+ | |||
+ | There are more [[guides:useful_bind_examples|Useful Bind Examples here]] | ||

+ | ====Pick up toggle (@)==== | ||
+ | This allows you to change your [[:player_commands#pickup]] status. Ten different modes for [[:player_commands#pickup|pick up]] exist: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Mode 1: Pick up one item | ||
+ | Mode 2: Pickup up one item and stop | ||
+ | Mode 3: Stop before picking up items | ||
+ | Mode 4: Pick up all items | ||
+ | Mode 5: Pick up all items and stop | ||
+ | Mode 6: Pick up all magical items | ||
+ | Mode 7: Pick up all coins and gems | ||
+ | Modes above 7: Pickup items with a value density greater than the pickup mode. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Value density is value in gold/weight in kilograms. The value in gold is what the item is worth if you sold it in the shop. Gold coins have a value density of 66. Density 10 will pickup silver, gold, rings, wands, books, and scrolls. Artifacts are also picked up. Whenever you move over a pile of stuff your pickup mode controls if and what you collect. You can always pickup stuff using the pickup command (,) regardless of your current pickup mode. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====Invoke ('invoke)==== | ||
+ | A useful way to quickly cast both incantations and prayers is via the [[:player_commands#invoke]] command. To use it effectively type: | ||
+ | |||
+ | `bind invoke <spell> to any key. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Then, when that bound key is pressed, your character will cast that magic in the direction they're currently facing. Invoke can also replace cast and achieve the same effect. | ||
+ | |||

+ | * [[:player_commands#party]] - a set of commands to control the formation and management of parties including | ||
+ | * party form <party name> - to create a new party with the specified name <party name>. | ||
+ | * party join <party name> - to join an existing party with the name <party name>. Note: creating a party does not automatically make you a member, you still have to type 'party join <party name> | ||
