Comm

Comms are largely out-of-character mechanisms for inter-player communication.

There are currently a handful of comms on The Two Towers:

  • OOC comm - "^"
  • FR/ER newbiecomm - "]"
  • FR/ER comm - "%"
  • PT comm - "("
  • Guild/Legion comm - "$"
  • GM comm - "*"

[edit] Usage

This is the basic help file for comms - it is applicable to all comms, not just the OOC comm.

(From "help comm":)

The comm command manages the Out-Of-Character comm line.

comm on - allows you to listen and send OOC comm-line messages comm off - turns off the OOC comm line output comm list - shows everyone who is tuned into the OOC comm line comm hist - displays the recent OOC comm history comm color - displays your comm color setting comm color on - allows you to see colors in comms comm color off - turns off colors in comms ^ <message> - send a message over the OOC comm line ^: <emote> - send an emote over the OOC comm line

comm newbieon - allows you to hear comms by newbies (level 1-3) comm newbieoff - filters out comms by newbies (level 1-3) comm newbielist - shows who is tuned to the newbie comm comm newbiehist - displays the recent newbiecomm history ] <message> - send a message over the newbie comm line ]: <emote> - send an emote over the newbie comm line

If you are not a newbie or newbiehelper, you will not be able to use or hear the newbiecomm.

Comm reporting (# = numbers shown on the history for the chan): comm report <commname> <#> - report comm # on channel 'commname' comm report <#> - report comm # on the main comm ic report <#> - report comm # on the IC comm CAUTION: DO NOT ABUSE COMM REPORTING.

Note: If you do not have comm color on, you will not be able to send colored comms as well as receive them.

To disable comm timestamps, 'set comm_timestamps off'.

See 'help fr' or 'help er' for usage of the intra-side comm.

[edit] Notes

  • Guilds have special "guild_comm" items, which are fully customizable and autoload.
