Server Commands
Server commands are scripts that you can enter into the chat window to perform a specific action. Use it just like chatting to someone, and use the backslash at the beginning, "/", to signify a server command. Commands that require parameters can be called without parameters to display help for the command.

New Command Related Features
Feature | Description |
---|---|
Command filtering | Any chat text starting with '/' or '.' will not be repeated to private or system chat (except '//' *sigh*). This means you can safely use /drawcash when you're in system chat without accidentally telling everybody your password. |
Command echoing | Most user commands (i.e. starting with /) are echoed back to your console so you can see what you typed. The exceptions to this are /local, /system, /target and their short variants. |
Showing your location | If a preset message contains '#c' then this will be substituted with your ship's approximate map location. For example, if you setup a preset message like:
/setmsg 1 Neural-network communications test. Transmitting from approximately #c And then type '/1' and it'll send on the system chat: {Your character name}: Neural-network communications test. Transmitting from approximately G-7 |
