SPEEDWALKING

Keywords: SPEEDWALKING
This command allows you to enter a string of directions and your character will automatically start walking as if you entered each direction individually. Syntax: speedwalk <direction list> The <direction list> consists of a string of directions in the form of <#d>. The "#" is optional and represents the number of times to repeat the direction. The "d" is the actual direction you wish to travel. You may also use <od> in the list, where "o" signifies open and "d" is the direction you'd like to open. For Example: speedwalk 3e2now2wu This will set your character walking 3 steps east, 2 north, open a door to the west, walk 2 west and one up. Since The Gathering... supports movement to: ne, nw, se and sw, it was necessary to abbreviate them to a one character command. R stands for northwest T stands for northeast G stands for southeast and F stands for southwest. If you look at your keyboard you will notice that they are clustered in the correct format designated by those directions. However, the abbreviation conflicts with previous shortcuts, namely r no longer equals rest and g no longer equals get. If this presents a problem feel free to assign these letters to their previous commands via an alias, ie alias g get. ******************************************************************* There is also the ability to store and use speedwalks you wish to keep handy.

The commands for manipulating this list of speedwalks for yourself are:

Speedwalk set <name> <direction list>
Speedwalk list
Speedwalk delete <name>
Speedwalk use <name>
