ROBOTS
:[ Robot Supply ]:
Robots can be purchased from the central complex, or crafted using a robotic assembly workbench. Included with each robot is a control pad, allowing the controller to send orders to a robot.
:[ Control Pad Commands ]:
You can operate the control pad (substitute the actual name for PAD in the following examples) with this syntax:
EXECUTE PAD - brings up the general menu, displaying the active robot and available commands.
EXECUTE ORDER ON PAD - replace ORDER with the name of the actual order. You will be prompted for confirmation before sending the order.
Note: If you have MUSHclient, you can type '@prefs mxp is 1' (no quotes) to turn on clickable URLs and more graphical menus in-game.
LINK PAD WITH ROBOT - replace ROBOT with the name of the actual robot. Attempts to add ROBOT to PAD as a controlled robot.
UNLINK ROBOT FROM PAD - replace ROBOT with the name of the actual robot. Unlinks ROBOT from PAD, removing it from PAD's control.
:[ Speech Commands ]:
Most robots respect speech commands addressed to them. For example, I have a robot named goon, so to ask his status I would type:
-goon status
If you are not present, your robot will defend itselfs and follow any orders it received previously.
