Gameplay
Syntax: emote (string)
This is the basic emoting syntax. Unless otherwise specificied, the emote
will start with your short desc or whatever others have you remembered by.
There is a character limit, but it is fairly long. If you are used to emoting
in very long paragraphs, split them up with separate emotes.
Syntax: subtle (string)
A subtle emote is the same as a regular emote, except that it can only be
seen by someone who has joined the same place as you. If you have not
joined a place, a subtle emote will show to anyone who similarly has not.
Places will be marked as such in a room description.
Syntax: private (person) (string)
A private emote is a regular emote that can only be seen by the person you
send it to. You cannot use dialogue in a private emote. A private emote that
has not been properly targeted will show as a subtle emote.
Syntax: announce (message)
This is a form of emote that goes to everyone in the room
even when the room is crowded. Regular emotes do not go to
the whole room in crowded rooms but only to those at the
same place as you.
Syntax: internal (message)
This form of emote can only be seen by you and any SRs and allows
you to emote internal thoughts, feelings, memories etc.
Syntax:
Targeting:
@me: @me in an emote will force the emote not to start with your sdesc,
instead putting it wherever you place it in the paragraph. E.g.,
emote "Hello," @me says, giving a wave.
will read as:
"Hello," Bob says, giving a wave.
as opposed to:
emote waves and says, "Hello."
Bob waves and says, "Hello."
@my: In order to have your sdesc appear possessive and force the emote
to not start with it, you must use @my. E.g.,
emote Stalking down the street, @my eyes peer owlishly around.
will read as:
Stalking down the street, Bob's eyes peer owlishly around.
@name: In order to target someone else in an emote, simply @theirname
or @introkeyword. E.g.,
emote glances curiously at @name.
will read as:
Bob glances curiously at Alice.
@name's: In order to target someone with a possessive, do the above but add
a 's as @theirname's. E.g.,
emote grabs at @name's bag.
will read as:
Bob grabs at Alice's bag.
Note: Emoting is not automatically capitalized or punctuated for you.
