Console commands are identified by the slash ( / ) they have at the beginning, like the one at the numeric keypad of the keyboard. To use a command just type the '/' followed by the command and the appropriate parameters, separated by spaces. For example: /tell johndoe hi pal, whaddya doin'?. Press ENTER at the end to execute the command.
Into the game, you can get a list of commands just by using the /help command at the console.
Game commands include:
- Gesture commands
- Chat commands (including traslation commands!)
- Ignore commands
- Fight commands
- Skill commands
- Group commands
- Other commands
In the gesture commands the target nick is optional. You can just type /tank for your character to make a gratitude gesture. By appending the target's nick the character will face to the specified player before doing the animation.
/thanks nick
/thx nick
It thanks with a gesture of the head.
/rude nick
It gives someone the finger.
/hi nick
It greets with the hand.
/bow nick
It makes a courteous bow.
/zone message
As default, when you type a text at the console and press ENTER the text is send to the whole room you are into, so everybody in there will read it. If you are into a fight, the text will be read only by the other players in that same fight. Whenever you are into a screen that doesn't default the texto to zone, like a private chat window, you can use the /zone command to talk to the room.
/me message
To express actions. For example if you type in /me moans of pain and your name is DunjerMaus everybody in the zone will read "DunjerMaus moans of pain".
/tell nick mensaje
It sends a private message to another player. You need a cell phone item to send private messages, and only the specified player will see the message you sent. For example: /tell dunjermaus hi pal, whaddya doin'? This item is sold by the "mental patient".
IMPORTANT: this command works with the whole game. That means, you can /tell messages to anybody in any server, not just the one your are playing in. If the messages you receive are from another server, the name of the server will be shown in the message (like in DunjerMaus tells you , '(Alcatraz) ya see, pickin some cooking stuff').
Pressing CONTROL + Y : (from replY) the text "/tell nick" will be typed automatically for you, where "nick" is the name of the last player that sent you a /tell message. That's very useful to reply messages without having to type in constantly the name of other people. Once the text "/tell nick" appears, you can use the UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW keys to move through the list of names of the players that already sent you private messages.
If you press CONTROL + Y and then add the word WIN right after that (for example /tell dunjermaus win) it will be the same that entering the /win nick command, that unfolds the chat console in "tell mode" to conveniently chat with that player in private.
/all message
To speak about anything related to the game. The whole prison will read the message. You need a megaphone item to be able to send messages to all. This item is sold by the "mental patient".

The message will be read by all members of the group you are into. See Appendix : Grouping.
/side message

Commands to ignore other players
|
If someone bothers you in the game, or you just don't want to read what he says, there are powerful commands to ignore other players. When you ignore someone, you won't read anything he writes and he won't be able to open on you any private chat, multiple chat, exchange or raffle.
/ignore nick
Toggles ignoring for the specified player.
/ignoreshouts nick
Ignores only the SHOUTS of the specified player.
/ignorelist nick
Shows the list of players you are currently ignoring.
/removeignores
Erases the whole ignore list, so you won't be ignoring anyone, unless it is set as ignores in the contact list.

It toggles the blood stains in combat. The blood can be enabled/disabled from the Options menu too, and it will be disabled by default if the "Low Quality Textures" option is enabled in the graphical configuration (Config.exe) utility.

/redo
/repeat
Repeats the combat actions you did in your las turn. It has the same effect as pressing CTRL + R or clicking on the REPEAT TURN button in the combat actions wheel.
/duel nick
Challenges another player to a duel. The duel is a 1 on 1 honor fight to which nobody else can join. The challenged player will reveice a notificacion and accept the challenge by using the very same /duel command with the name of the challenging player.
/assist nick
When you use this command in the same zone that the specified player, your character will run to the point where that player is and open the combat-join window to join the same combat where the player is.
These commands are for using some special skills of the character.
/hide
It starts the hiding sequence for characters with the Stealth skill. Characters with that skill are Thieves, Corrupt Politicians, Hitmans and Muggers. When successful, the skill completely hides you from all other players and NPCs in the same zone, making you completely invisible. Once you move, you will be visible again. When you use the /hide command there is a chance for the skill to fail, so you won't hide and will have to try again at least 10 seconds later. The higher the skill level, the less likely for the skill to fail.
/transport nick
/summon nick
Only corrupt policitians and gangsters have this skill. To use it in game, type in the /transport command followed by the nick of the player you want to transport to the very spot you are. The specified player will receive a notification about the requested transport, waiting to be accepted or refused.
The transport skill requires the transported player to have a "special safe-conduct" item in the inventory, that will be consumed when the player accepts the transport by using the /transportyes command.
/summonyes

The maximum length of the surname is 15 characters, keeping in mind that if you use colour codes, every color code uses 2 characters. If the surname is too long, an error message will warn you about it so you can edit the surname and try again.
Whenever you want to change your surname you will have to find the NPC that, for a reasonable fee, removes your current surname, so you can use this command again.

Binds are saved to your drive, so you don't have to re-bind anything the next time you run the game.
This is very useful to use emoticons (animated icons embedded in the chat text), so you can set an alias so a smiling picture appears in the text whenever you type in :-).
A complete explanation about this command is at Addendum: Emoticons.

Your current position in the map will be sent then to the whole gang, or to all allied gangs or directly to the specified player. Everybody that receives your map position will see a small window with your nick right above the chat console, at the right of the screen. By clicking on the window the game map will open showing your name pinned to the room you are into.
