Talk:Help commands

From Battleground Europe Wiki

Forgot to say thanks, Cad1sc. Great job! Bloo

We should probably bounce this with the text command page, then keep 1 or the other... b2k 17 Feb 07 0733 EST

Ty bloo :-)

You are right b2k... help commands and text commands too similar... guess is better idea merge both in only one... Shall we do it bloo?

Hmm no Bloo input...... My Idea - Adjust .help command page to what happens when you type .help Keep Text command page for all commands (linked of course)

Maybe even make a .<your command here> series of pages.

Sorry. Yeah, merging them is fine. However, you might hold off for now. I just recently got a complete list of all the bazillion different commands, including internal ones (actually, it was three different lists). I'm cobbling it together, documenting the internal ones on internal systems, but also removing obsolete public ones. Some here are obsolete, and some aren't in internal docs. Joy. Should be done soon (as in day or two).

I'm also adding the chat commands to the in-game manuals. My latest list below, organized as they are in the manual pages: Bloo
