Chat Commands you may not know

Post by CloudDancing »

The following commands can be entered into the chat window. Be sure to include the symbol indicated.
/t “charactername” text


The /t command sends a private message (a /tell) to the character indicated in quotes.
In most cases you must use the quotation marks.
/r text


The /r command sends a /tell to the last person who spoke within your hearing range (including, possibly, yourself).
>r text


Use the >r command followed by text. For example, “>r Hello!” This will send the message to the last person who sent a /tell to you. Note that if you use the NWN2 Client Extension, you can get the same functionality by using /re and /rt. /re replies to the last person who sent you a /tell. /rt replies to the last person to whom you sent a /tell.
/p text


The /p command sends a message to your party. Party messages are visible to anyone in your party and to all DMs currently online.
/w text


The /w command sends a /whisper. Whispers are like standard chat speech—they can be heard by anyone—but can only be heard for a short range.
>w


The >w command will toggle the Whisper Lock. This command is functionally
identical to the Whisper Lock button.
>tb


Use the >tb command to block all incoming /tells (or to reverse the block). Others will be informed that you are blocking when they try to /tell you.
>tp name


Use the >tp command followed by a PC’s full name. For example, “>tp Thyateira
Eryahu” This will block tells from that character (permanent until reversed by the same command). The blocked player will only be told that you are blocking tells, not that the block is specific to that player.
>setbio text


Use the >setbio command followed by any text. This will set your current KEMO Bio text. By this method, in combination with the Client Extension (using the external chat window), you can paste text from outside NWN2 into your bio. Only use this command when your KEMO Bio panel is closed. (This command does not eliminate the option to set your bio using the Bio panel.)
>clearbio


Use the >clearbio command to clear your KEMO Bio text quickly. Only use this command when your KEMO Bio panel is closed.
>setport filename


Use the >setport command to change your KEMO Bio portrait from the chat line. Do not include the filename extension. (This command does not eliminate the option to set the portrait using the Bio panel.)
]xx text


Use the ] command followed by any two letters/numbers, then chat text, to set up a macro. For example, “]si *sighs histrionically.*” would save the macro “*sighs histrionically*” to the code si. When the macro is expanded out again (see below), it will be adjusted by any filters you may currently have set up (emote pink or ooc brown), not the filters you had set up when you made the macro. Because macros are identified by 2 letters/numbers, you can have up to 1296 macros defined.
[xx


The [ command activates a macro that you have previously set, using the two letter/number code.

This is good stuff.
pragmatic (adj.)
The opposite of idealistic is pragmatic, a word that describes a philosophy of "doing what works best."
From Greek pragma "deed," the word has historically described philosophers and politicians who were
concerned more with real-world application of ideas than with abstract notions. A pragmatic person
is sensible, grounded, and practical.

We don't have any of those other than the '/' ones.

Our dice rollers use '#' or '!' so like:

"!str" is a strength check

We use '@' for languages so:

"@dra hello"is hello in daconic
People talk of bestial cruelty, but that's a great injustice and insult to the beasts; a beast can never be so cruel as man, so artistically cruel.

< C=Pink >'Emote Emote Emote '< /C >

Try a red one if the DM is not paying attention to you.
