-Logical operators work only on numbers:
+Logical bitwise operators work only on numbers, and they are the following:
<< - Left shift.
>> - Right shift.
+ Left shift moves the binary 1(s) of a number n positions to the left,
+ which is the same as multiplying by 2, n times.
+ In the other hand, Right shift moves the binary 1(s) of a number n positions
+ to the right, which is the same as dividing by 2, n times.
+ Example:
+ set b,2;
+ set a, b << 3;
+ mes a;
+ set a, a >> 2;
+ mes a;
+ The first mes command would display 16, which is the same as 2 x (2 x 2 x 2) = 16.
+ The second mes command would display 4, which is the same as 16 / 2 = 8. 8 / 2 = 4.
& - And.
| - Or.
+ The bitwise operator AND (&) is used to test two values against eachother,
+ and results in setting bits which are active in both arguments. This can
+ be used for a few things, but in eAthena this operator is usually used to
+ create bitmasks in scripts.
+
+ The bitwise operator OR (|)sets to 1 a binary position if the binary position
+ of one of the numbers is 1. This way a variable can hold several values we can check,
+ known as bitmaks. A variable currently can hold up to 32 bitmasks (from position 0
+ to position 1). This is a cheap(skate) and easy way to avoid using arrays to store several checks
+ that a player can have.
+
+ A bitmask basically is (ab)using the variables bits to set various options in
+ one variable. With the current limit if variables it is possible to store 32
+ different options in one variable (by using the bits on position 0 to 31).
+
+ Example(s):
+ - Basic example of the & operator, bit example:
+ 10 & 2 = 2
+ Why? :
+ 10 = 2^1 + 2^3 (2 + 8), so in bits, it would be 1010
+ 2 = 2^1 (2), so in bits (same size) it would be 0010
+ The & (AND) operator sets bits which are active (1) in both arguments, so in the
+ example 1010 & 0010, only the 2^1 bit is active (1) in both. Resulting in the bit
+ 0010, which is 2.
+ - Basic example of creating and using a bit mask:
+ set @options,2|4|16; //(note: this is the same as 2+4+16, or 22)
+ if (@options & 1) mes "Option 1 is activated";
+ if (@options & 2) mes "Option 2 is activated";
+ if (@options & 4) mes "Option 3 is activated";
+ if (@options & 8) mes "Option 4 is activated";
+ if (@options & 16) mes "Options 5 is activated";
+ This would return the messages about option 2, 3 and 5 being shown (since we've set
+ the 2,4 and 16 bit to 1).
^ - Xor.
-
-If you don't know what these five mean, don't bother, you don't need them.
+ The bitwise operator XOR (eXclusive OR) sets to 0 a binary position if both numbers have a 1
+ in the said position. On the other hand, it sets to 1 if there's a 1 in any of the number in
+ the said binary position.
+ This is the counter-part of the OR operator, the opposite if you like. This is used to remove a
+ bitmask, which is the same as substracting it.
+
+ Example:
+ - We set the variable first:
+ set a,2|4|8|16; // this would be the same as 2+4+8+16 = 30
+ - After some checks, we find he didn't do the third quest, which we asigned the 3rd value (8)
+ so now we have to remove it:
+ set a,a^8; //this would be the same as 30-8 = 22. 22 = 16+4+2, which are the flags left.

- percentheal 0,100; // This will heal 100% SP

-A gender is required because both Bard and Dancers share the same eA Job value (EAJ_BARDDANCER), if it isn't given, the
-gender of the executing player is taken (if there's no player running the script, male will be used by default).
-The command returns -1 when there isn't a valid class to represent the required job (for example, if you try to get the
-baby version of a Taekwon class).
+And like 'menu', this command has a problem with empty strings - if some of the
+option strings given to it are empty, you won't be able to tell which one the
+user really picked. The number it returns will only make sense if all the empty
+strings are last in the list of options.

-*copyarray <to array>[<first value>],<from array>[<first value>],<amount to copy>;

- // Now, @array2[0] will be equal to @array[2] (300) and

---------------------------------------
-*getarraysize(<array name>);
-
-This function returns the number of values that are contained inside the
-specified array. Notice that zeros and empty strings at the end of this array
-are not counted towards this number.
-
-For example:
+*function <function name>;
+*<function name>;
+*function <function name> {

+}
- setarray @array[0], 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600;
- set @arraysize,getarraysize(@array);
+(Skotlex stop being so selfish and give us all the commands T~T! J/k lol :P)
-This will make @arraysize == 6. But if you try this:
+This works like callfunc, but doesn't support arguments like callfunc. It's used for cleaner
+and fast script that doesn't require arguments for it to work. Also they must be inside a script.
+They're not separated scripts and they work more like labels.
- setarray @array[0], 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 0;
- set @arraysize,getarraysize(@array);
-
-@arraysize will still equal 6, even though you've set 7 values.
+Note it looks like the normal declaration
----------------------------------------
+Usage:
-*deletearray <array name>[<first value>],<how much to delete>
+You first Declare the function with function <function name>;.
-This command will delete a specified number of array elements totally from an
-array, shifting all the elements beyond this towards the beginning.
+Put the rest of your code. You can use then <function name>; to call the function. If it returns a value is unsure,
+test it if you want and give us some comments ;3
- // This will delete array element 0, and move all the other array elements
- // up one place.
- deletearray @array[0],1
+And at least, but inside the script itself, put the function <function name> {<code>}.
-// This would delete array elements numbered 1, 2 and 3, leave element 0 in its
-// place, and move the other elements ups, so there are no gaps.

- deletearray @array[1],3

-different groups and their group number are specified in db/item_group_db.txt
+*copyarray <destination array>[<first value>],<source array>[<first value>],<amount of data to copy>;

-example, for a random pet lure:
-
-getitem groupranditem(15),1;
-

-
-*makeitem <item id>,<amount>,<X>,<Y>,"<map name>";
-*makeitem "<item name>",<amount>,<X>,<Y>,"<map name>";
+This command lets you quickly shuffle a lot of data between arrays, which is in
+some cases invaluable.
-This command will create an item lying around on a specified map in the
-specified location.
+ setarray @array[0], 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600;
+ // So we have made @array[]
+ copyarray @array2[0],@array[2],2;
+
+ // Now, @array2[0] will be equal to @array[2] (300) and
+ // @array2[1] will be equal to @array[3].
- itemid - Found in 'db/item_db.txt'
- amount - Amount you want produced
- X - The X coordinate
- Y - The Y coordinate
- map name - The map name.
+So using the examples above:
+ @array[0] = 100
+ @array[1] = 200
+ @array[2] = 300
+ @array[3] = 400
+ @array[4] = 500

+ @array2[1] = 400
+ @array2[2] = 0
+ @array2[3] = 0
-This item will still disappear just like any other dropped item. Like 'getitem',
-it also accepts an 'english name' field from the database and creates apples if
-the name isn't found.

-*delitem <item id>,<amount>;
-*delitem "<item name>",<amount>;
-
-This command will take a specified amount of items from the invoking character.
-As all the item commands, this one uses the ID of the item found inside
-'db/item_db.txt'. The items are destroyed - there is no way an NPC can simply
-own items and have an inventory of them, other as by destroying and recreating
-them when needed.

+*deletearray <array name>[<first value>],<how much to delete>

-you take it from them, Otherwise, you could try to delete items which the

-but might open up ways to exploit your script.
+This command will delete a specified number of array elements totally from an

-Like 'getitem' this command will also accept an 'english name' field from the
-database. If the name is not found, nothing will be deleted.
+ // This will delete array element 0, and move all the other array elements
+ // up one place.
+ deletearray @array[0],1
----------------------------------------
+// This would delete array elements numbered 1, 2 and 3, leave element 0 in its
+// place, and move the other elements ups, so there are no gaps.
-*delitem2 <item id>,<amount>,<identify>,<refine>,<attribute>,<card1>,<card2>,<card3>,<card4>{,<character ID>};
-*delitem2 "<Item name>",<amount>,<identify>,<refine>,<attribute>,<card1>,<card2>,<card3>,<card4>{,<character ID>};
+ deletearray @array[1],3
-This command will take a specified amount of items from the invoking character.
-Check 'getitem2' to understand its expanded parameters.
+IMPORTANT: deletarray is horribly broken since the earliest days of jAthena. It
+tends to merrily remove much more variables than it's told to remove, which
+makes it pretty much useless for anything other than removing an array from
+memory entirely. This would be very handy, if it always worked.
---------------------------------------
-*enable_items;
-*disable_items;
-
-These commands enable item usage while an npc is running. When enable_items is
-run, items can be used during scripts until disable_items is called.
-To avoid possible exploits, when enable_items is invoked, it will only enable
-item usage while running that script in particular. Note that if a different
-script also calls enable_items, it will override the last call (so you may
-want to call this command at the start of your script without assuming the
-effect is still in effect).

+|2.- Information-retrieving commands.|
+======================================
---------------------------------------
-*viewpoint <action>,<x>,<y>,<point number>,<color>;
-
-This command will mark places on the mini map in the client connected to the
-invoking character. It uses the normal X and Y coordinates from the main map.
-The colors of the marks are defined using a hexidecimal number, same as the ones
-used to color text in 'mes' output, but are written as hexadecimal numbers in C.
-(They look like 0x<six numbers>.)
-
-Action is what you want to do with a point, 1 will set it, while 2 will clear
-it. Point number is the number of the point - you can have several. If more than
-one point is drawn at the same coordinates, they will cycle, which can be used
-to create flashing marks.
-
- // This command will show a mark at coordinates X 30 Y 40, is mark number 1,
- // and will be red.
-
- viewpoint 1,30,40,1,0xFF0000;
-
-This will create three points:
-
- viewpoint 1,30,40,1,0xFF0000;
- viewpoint 1,35,45,2,0xFF0000;
- viewpoint 1,40,50,3,0xFF0000;
+*strcharinfo(<type>)
-And this is how you remove them:
+This function will return either the name, party name or guild name for the
+invoking character. Whatever it returns is determined by type.
- viewpoint 2,30,40,1,0xFF0000;
- viewpoint 2,35,45,2,0xFF0000;
- viewpoint 2,40,50,3,0xFF0000;
-
-The client determines what it does with the points entirely, the server keeps no
-memory of where the points are set whatsoever.
+ 0 - Character's name.
+ 1 - The name of the party they're in if any.
+ 2 - The name of the guild they're in if any.
+
+If a character is not a member of any party or guild, an empty string will be
+returned when requesting that information.
---------------------------------------
-*countitem(<item id>)
-*countitem("<item name>")
+*getarraysize(<array name>)
-This function will return the number of items for the specified item ID that the
-invoking character has in the inventory.
+This function returns the number of values that are contained inside the
+specified array. Notice that zeros and empty strings at the end of this array
+are not counted towards this number.
- mes "[Item Checker]";
- mes "Hmmm, it seems you have "+countitem(502)+" apples";
- close;
+For example:
-Like 'getitem', this function will also accept an 'english name' from the
-database as an argument.
+ setarray @array[0], 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600;
+ set @arraysize,getarraysize(@array);
-If you want to state the number at the end of a sentence, you can do it by
-adding up strings:
+This will make @arraysize == 6. But if you try this:
- mes "[Item Checker]";
- mes "Hmmm, the total number of apples you are holding is "+countitem("APPLE");

-Expanded version of 'countitem' function, used for created/carded/forged items.
+@arraysize will still equal 6, even though you've set 7 values.

-other parameters that the invoking character has in the inventory.
-Check 'getitem2' to understand the arguments of the function.
-
---------------------------------------
-*checkweight(<item id>,<amount>)
-*checkweight("<item name>",<amount>)
-
-This function will compute and return 1 if the total weight of a specified
-number of specific items does not exceed the invoking character's carrying
-capacity, and 0 otherwise. It is important to see if a player can carry the
-items you expect to give them, failing to do that may open your script up to
-abuse or create some very unfair errors.
-
-Like 'getitem', this function will also accept an 'english name' from the
-database as an argument.
+*getelementofarray(<array name>,<index>)
- checkweight(502,10) // 10 apples
+This function will return an array's element when given an index.
- if (checkweight(502,10) == 0 ) goto L_OverWeight;
- getitem 502,10;
- close;
- L_OverWeight:
- mes "Sorry you cannot hold this ammount of apples";

-This command will bump a specified stat of the invoking character up by the
-specified amount permanently. The amount can be negative. See 'statusup'.
+This function will locate a character object, NPC object or pet's coordinates
+and place their coordinates into the variables specified when calling it. It
+will return 0 if the search was successful, and -1 if the parameters given were
+not variables or the search was not successful.
- // This will decrease a character's Vit forever.
- statusup bVit,-1;
+Type is the type of object to search for:
+
+ 0 - Character object
+ 1 - NPC object
+ 2 - Pet object
+ 3 - Monster object.
+
+While 3 is meant to look for a monster object, no searching will be done if you
+specify type 3, and the function will always return -1.
+
+The search string is optional. If it is not specified, the location of the
+invoking character will always be returned for types 0 and 2, the location of
+the NPC running this function for type 1.
+If a search string is specified, for types 0 and 1, the character or NPC with
+the specified name will be located. If type is 3, the search will locate the
+current pet of the character who's name is given in the search string, it will
+NOT locate a pet by name.

+This function will return the system time in UNIX epoch time (if tick type is 2)
+or the time since the start of the current day in seconds if tick type is 1.
+Passing 0 will make it return the server's tick, which is a measurement in
+milliseconds used by the server's timer system. The server's tick is an
+unsigned int which loops every ~50 days.
-Level is obvious. Skill id is the ID number of the skill in question as per
-'db/skill_db.txt'. It is not known for certain whether this can be used to give
-a character a monster's skill, but you're welcome to try with the numbers given
-in 'db/mob_skill_db.txt'.
+Just in case you don't know, UNIX epoch time is the number of seconds elapsed
+since 1st of January 1970, and is useful to see, for example, for how long the
+character has been online with OnPCLoginEvent and OnPCLogoutEvent, which could allow
+you to make an 'online time counted for conviction only' jail script.
-Flag is 0 if the skill is given permanently (will get written with the character
-data) or 1 if it is temporary (will be lost eventually, this is meant for card
-item scripts usage.). The flag parameter is optional, and defaults to 1 in
-'skill' and to 2 in 'addtoskill'.

-character is a member of a guild AND it's guildmaster, otherwise no failure
-message will be given and no error will occur, but nothing will happen - same
-about the guild skill trying to exceed the possible maximum. The full list of

-the end.
+This function will return a string containing time data as specified by the
+format string.
-The flag parameter is currently not functional and it's a mystery of what it
-would actually do. (Though probably, like for character skills, it would allow
-temporary bumping.) Using this command will bump the guild skill up permanently.
+This uses the C function 'strfmtime', which obeys special format characters. For
+a full description see, for example, the description of 'strfmtime' at
+http://www.delorie.com/gnu/docs/glibc/libc_437.html
+All the format characters given in there should properly work.
+Max length is the maximum length of a time string to generate.

+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*getusers(<type>)
+
+This function will return a number of users on a map or the whole server. What
+it returns is specified by Type.
+
+Type is a bitmask, add up to get the effects you want:
+
+ 8 - This will count all characters on the same map as the current NPC.
+ (By default, it will count people on the same map as the character)
+ 7 - Return the amount of players for the entire server.
+ (By default, only the players on the map will be counted.)
+
+So 'getusers(0)' will return the number of characters on the same map as the
+invoking character, while 'getusers(7)' will give the count for entire server.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*getmapusers("<map name>")
+
+This function will return the number of users currently located on the specified
+map.
+
+Currently being used in the PVP scripts to check if a PVP room is full of not,
+if the number returned it equal to the maximum allowed it will not let you
+enter.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*getareausers("<map name>",<x1>,<y1>,<x2>,<y2>)
+
+This function will return the count of connected characters which are located
+within the specified area - an x1/y1-x2/y2 square on the specified map.
+
+This is useful for maps that are split into many buildings, such as all the
+"*_in.gat" maps, due to all the shops and houses.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*getusersname;
+
+This command will give the invoking character a list of names of the connected
+characters (including themselves) into an NPC script message window (see 'mes')
+paging it by 10 names as if with the 'next' command.
+
+You need to put a 'close' after that yourself.

+
+ // Would print what ever guild 10007 is, in my case this would return "AlcoROhics"
+ mes "The guild "+GetGuildName(10007)+" are all nice people.";
+
+ // This will do the same as above:
+ set @var,10007;
+ mes "We have some friends in "+GetGuildName(@var)+", you know.";
+
+This is used all over the WoE controlling scripts. You could also use it for a
+guild-based event.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*getguildmaster(<guild id>)
+
+This function return the name of the master of the guild which has the specified
+ID number. If there is no such guild, "null" will be returned.
+
+// Would return the guild master of guild 10007, whatever that might be.
+// In this example it would return "MissDjax" cause she owns "AlcoROhics" (10007)
+ mes getguildmaster(10007)+" runs "+getguildname(10007);
+
+Can be used to check if the character is the guildmaster of the specified guild.

+
+ set @GID,getcharid(2);
+ if(@GID==0) goto L_NoGuild;
+ if(strcharinfo(0)==getguildmaster(@GID)) goto L_GuildMaster;

+ L_GuildMaster:
+ mes "Welcome guild master of "+GetGuildName(@GID);
+ close;
+
+
+---------------------------------------
+

+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*getcastlename("<map name>")

+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*getcastledata("<map name>",<type of data>)
+*setcastledata "<map name>",<type of data>,<value>;
+
+This function returns the castle ownership information for the castle referred
+to by it's map name. Castle information stored in 'save\castle.txt' for the TXT
+version of the server and in 'guild_castle' table for the SQL version.
+
+Valid types of data are:
+
+ 0 - Will make the map server request the castle data from the char server, and
+ always return 0. This, apparently, will also cause indirectly the execution
+ of an 'OnAgitInit:' event mentioned at the beginning of this document.
+ 1 - Guild ID
+ 2 - Castle Economy score.
+ 3 - Castle Defence score.
+ 4 - Number of times the economy was invested in today.
+ 5 - Number of times the defence was invested in today.
+ 9 - Will return 1 if a Kafra was hired for this castle, 0 otherwise.
+10 - Is 1 if the 1st guardian is present (Soldier Guardian)
+11 - Is 1 if the 2nd guardian is present (Soldier Guardian)
+12 - Is 1 if the 3rd guardian is present (Soldier Guardian)
+13 - Is 1 if the 4th guardian is present (Archer Guardian)
+14 - Is 1 if the 5th guardian is present (Archer Guardian)
+15 - Is 1 if the 6th guardian is present (Knight Guardian)
+16 - Is 1 if the 7th guardian is present (Knight Guardian)
+17 - Is 1 if the 8th guardian is present (Knight Guardian)
+
+18-25 types of data will return current hit point values for guardians 1-8
+respectively.
+
+The 'setcastledata' command will behave identically, but instead of returning
+values for the specified types of accessible data, it will alter them and cause
+them to be sent to the char server for storage. Data type of 0 won't do
+anything, obviously.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*getgdskilllv(<guild id>,<skill id>)
+
+This function returns the level of the skill <skill id> of the guild <guild id>.
+If the guild does not have that skill, 0 is returned.
+If the guild does not exist, -1 is returned.
+Refer to 'db/skill_db.txt' for the full list of skills. (GD_* are guild skills)
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*requestguildinfo <guild id>,"<event label>";
+This command requests the guild data from the char server and merrily continues
+with the execution. Whenever the guild information becomes available (which
+happens instantly if the guild information is already in memory, or later, if it
+isn't and the map server has to wait for the char server to reply) it will run
+the specified event as in a 'doevent' call.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*getmapguildusers <mapname>,<guild id>;
+
+Returns the amount of persons from the given guild that are on the given map.

+capacity, and 0 otherwise. It is important to see if a player can carry the
+items you expect to give them, failing to do that may open your script up to
+abuse or create some very unfair errors.
+
+Like 'getitem', this function will also accept an 'english name' from the

+
+*getequipisidentify(<equipment slot>)
+
+This function will return 1 if an item in the specified equipment slot is

+return 1 all the time if there is an item in this equipment slot.
+Which is kinda pointless.

+
+*attachrid(<character ID>)
+*detachrid;
+
+A 'RID' is an ID of a character who caused the NPC script to run, as has been
+explained above in the introduction section. Quite a bit of commands want a RID
+to work, since they wouldn't know where to send information otherwise. And in
+quite a few cases the script gets invoked with a RID of zero (like through
+OnTime special labels). If an NPC script needs this, it can attach a specified
+character's id to itself. by calling the 'attachrid' function.
+
+'attachrid' returns 1 if the character was found online and 0 if it wasn't.
+
+This could also be used, while running in a script invoked by a character
+through talking to an NPC, to mess with other characters.
+Detaching the RID will make the RID of the script zero.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*rid2name(<rid>)
+
+Converts rid to name. Note: The player/monster/NPC must be online/enabled.
+Good for PCKillEvent where you can convert 'killedrid' to the name of the player.
+
+Note: rid2name may not produce correct character names since rid = account id.
+ It will return the current online character of the account only.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*message "<character name>","<message>";
+
+That command will send a message to the chat window of the character specified
+by name. The text will also appear above the head of that character. It will not
+be seen by anyone else.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*dispbottom "<message>";
+
+This command will send the given message into the invoking character's chat
+window.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*warp "<map name>",<x>,<y>;
+
+This command will take the invoking character to the specifed map, and if
+wanted, specified coordinates too, but these can be random.
+
+ warp "place.gat",50,55;
+
+This would take them to X 50 Y 55 on the map called "place". If your X and Y
+coordinates land on an unwalkable map square, it will send the warped character
+to a random place. Same will happen if they are both zero:
+
+ warp "place.gat",0,0;
+
+Notice that while warping people to coordinates 0,0 will normally get them into
+a random place, it's not certain to always be so. Darned if I know where this is
+actually coded, it might be that this happens because square 0,0 is unwalkable
+on all official maps. If you're using custom maps, beware.
+
+There are also three special 'map names' you can use.
+
+"Random" will warp the player randomly on the current map.
+"Save" and "SavePoint" will warp the player back to their savepoint.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*areawarp "<from map name>",<x1>,<y1>,<x2>,<y2>,"<to map name>",<x3>,<y3>;
+
+This command is similar to 'warp', however, it will not refer to the invoking
+character, but instead, all characters within a specified area, defined by the
+x1/y1-x2/y2 square, will be warped. Nobody outside the area will be affected,
+including the activating character, if they are outside the area.
+
+ areawarp "place.gat",10,10,120,120,"place2.gat",150,150;
+
+Everyone that is in the area between X 10 Y 10 and X 120 Y 120, in a square
+shape, on the map called "place", will be affected, and warped to "place2" X 150
+Y 150
+
+ areawarp "place.gat",10,10,120,120,"place2.gat",0,0;
+
+By using ,0,0; as the destination coordinates it will take all the characters in
+the affected area to a random set of co-ordinates on "place2".
+
+Like 'warp', areawarp will also explicitly warp characters randomly into the
+current map if you give the 'to map name' as "Random".
+
+See also 'warp'.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*warpparty "<mapname.gat>",<x>,<y>,<party_id>;
+
+Warps a party to specified map and coordinate given the party ID, which you can get with
+getcharid(1). You can also request another party id given a member's name with getcharid(1,<player_name>).
+
+Example:
+mes "[Party Warper]";
+mes "Here you go!";

+set @id,getcharid(1);
+warpparty "prontera.gat",150,100,@id;
+close;
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*warpchar "<mapname.gat>",<x>,<y>,<char_id>;
+
+Warps another player to specified map and coordinate given the char id, which you can get with
+getcharid(0,<player_name>). Obviously this is useless if you want to warp the same player that
+is executing this script, unless it's some kind of "chosen" script.
+
+Example:
+
+warpchar "prontera.gat",150,100,20000001;
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*warpguild "<mapname.gat>",<x>,<y>,<guild_id>;
+
+Warps a guild to specified map and coordinate given the guild id, which you can get with
+getcharid(2). You can also request another guild id given the member's name with getcharid(2,<player_name>).
+
+Example:
+
+warpguild "prontera.gat",x,y,Guild_ID;
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*warppartner("<map name>",<x>,<y>);
+
+This function will find the invoking character's marriage partner, if any, and
+warp them to the map and coordinates given. Go kidnap that spouse. :) It will
+return 1 upon success and 0 if the partner is not online, the character is not
+married, or if there's no invoking character (no RID). 0,0 will, as usual,
+normally translate to random coordinates.

+Unlike 'heal', which just alters hp/sp and doesn't do anything else at all, this
+command also shows healing animations for potions and other stuff, checks
+whether the potion was made by a famous alchemist and alters the amount healed,
+etc, etc. Since which kind of effect is shown depends on what item was used,
+using it in an NPC script will not have a desired effect.
-It will only return numbers.

-*gettimestr(<format string>,<max length>)
+*percentheal <hp>,<sp>;
-This function will return a string containing time data as specified by the
-format string.
+This command will heal the invoking character. It heals the character, but not
+by a set value - it adds percent of their maximum HP/SP.
-This uses the C function 'strfmtime', which obeys special format characters. For
-a full description see, for example, the description of 'strfmtime' at
-http://www.delorie.com/gnu/docs/glibc/libc_437.html
-All the format characters given in there should properly work.

+ percentheal 0,100; // This will heal 100% SP
+ percentheal 50,50; // This will heal 50% HP and 50% SP
-The example given in eAthena sample scripts works like this:
+So the amount that this will heal will depend on the total ammount of HP or SP
+you have maximum. Like 'heal', this will not call up any animations or effects.
- mes gettimestr("%Y-%m/%d %H:%M:%S",21);

-*openstorage;
+*jobchange <job number>{,<upper flag>};
-This will open a character's Kafra storage window on the client connected to the
-invoking character. It does not check wherever it is run from, so you can allow
-any feasible NPC to open a kafra storage. (It's not certain whether this works
-in item scripts, but if it does, it could be interesting.)
+This command will change the job class of the invoking character.
-The storage window might not open if a message box or a trade deal is present on
-screen already, so you should at least make sure the message box is closed
-before you open storage.
+ jobchange 1; // This would change your player into a Swordman
+ jobchange 4002; // This would change your player into a Swordman High
- mes "I will now open your stash for you";

+'db/const.txt'.
+
+ // This would change your player into a Swordman
+ jobchange Job_Swordman;
+ // This would change your player into a Swordman High
+ jobchange Job_Swordman_High;
+
+'upper flag' can alternatively be used to specify the type of job one changes
+to. For example, jobchange Job_Swordman,1; will change the character to a high
+swordsman. The upper values are:
+-1 (or when omitted): preserves the current job type.
+0: Normal/standard classes
+1: High/Advanced classes
+2: Baby classes
+
+This command will also set a permanent character-based variable
+'jobchange_level' which will contain the job level at the time right before
+changing jobs, which can be checked for later in scripts.

-This function works the same as 'openstorage' but will open a guild storage
-window instead for the guild storage of the guild the invoking character belongs
-to. This is a function because it returns a value - 0 if the guild storage was
-opened successfully and 1 if it wasn't. (Notice, it's a ZERO upon success.)
-Since guild storage is only accessible to one character at one time, it may fail
-if another character is accessing the guild storage at the same time.

+*eaclass ({<job number>})
+
+This commands returns the "eA job-number" corresponding to the given class (if none is given, it returns uses
+the invoking player's class as argument). The eA job-number is also a class number system, but it's one that
+comes with constants which make it easy to convert among classes. The command will return -1 if you pass it a

+
+For more information on the eA Job System, see the docs/ea_job_system.txt file.
+
+---------------------------------------
+*roclass <job number> {,<gender>}
+
+Does the opposite of eaclass. That is, given a eA Job class, it returns which is the corresponding RO class number.
+A gender is required because both Bard and Dancers share the same eA Job value (EAJ_BARDDANCER), if it isn't given, the
+gender of the executing player is taken (if there's no player running the script, male will be used by default).
+The command returns -1 when there isn't a valid class to represent the required job (for example, if you try to get the
+baby version of a Taekwon class).
+
+ set @eac, eaclass();
+ //Check if class is already rebirth
+ if (@eac&EAJL_UPPER) {
+ mes "You look strong.";

+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*changebase <job ID number>;
+
+This will change the appearance of the invoking character to that of a specified
+job class. Nothing but appearance will change. This command is used in item
+scripts for "Wedding Dress" and "Tuxedo" so the character like job 22, which is
+the job number of the wedding sprites.
+
+It would be entered in the equip bonus section of an item
+
+2338,Wedding_Dress,Wedding Dress,5,43000,,500,,0,,0,119529470,7,0,16,,0,1,0,{ bonus bMdef,15; changebase 22; }
+
+This command only works when inside item scripts.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*classchange <view id>,<type>;
+
+This command is very ancient, it's origins are clouded in mystery.
+It will send a 'display id change' packet to everyone in the immediate area of
+the NPC object, which will supposedly make the NPC look like a different sprite,
+an NPC sprite ID, or a monster ID. This effect is not stored anywhere and will
+not persist (Which is odd, cause it would be relatively easy to make it do so)
+and most importantly, will not work at all since this command was broken with
+the introduction of advanced classes. The code is written with the assumption
+that the lowest sprite IDs are the job sprites and the anything beyond them is
+monster and NPC sprites, but since the advanced classes rolled in, they got the
+ID numbers on the other end of the number pool where monster sprites float.
+
+As a result it is currently impossible to call this command with a valid view
+id. It will do nothing whatsoever if the view ID is below 4047. Getting it to
+run will actually just crash the client.
+
+It could be a real gem if it can be gotten to actually do what it's supposed to
+do, but this will only happen in a later SVN revision.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*changesex;
+
+This command will change the gender for the attached character's account. If it
+was male, it will become female, if it was female, it will become male. The
+change will be written to the character server, but there is no way to send this
+information to the client, so the player will continue to see their character as
+the gender it previously was. What the other players will see before the
+relogin is not clear.
+
+If the character currently connected when this command was invoked was a
+Dancer/Gypsy or Bard/Clown, they will become a Swordman upon 'changesex'.
+Whatever happens to their skills is not clear. Whatever happens if another
+character on the same account was a gender-specific class is not clear either,
+but it's likely that the client will have serious issues with that, since no
+other characters on the same account will get altered.
+
+There's good reasons to be very careful when using this command.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*getexp <base xp>,<job xp>;
+
+This command will give the invoking character a specified number of base and job
+experience points. Can be used as a quest reward. Negative amounts of experience
+were not tested but should work.
+
+ getexp 10000,5000;
+
+You can also use the "set" command with the constants defined in 'db/const.txt':
+
+ // These 2 combined has the same effect as the above command
+ set BaseExp,BaseExp+10000;
+ set JobExp,JobExp+5000;
+
+You can also reduce the ammount of experience points:
+
+ set BaseExp,BaseExp-10000;
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*setlook <look type>,<look value>;
+
+This command will alter the look data for the invoking character. It is used
+mainly for changing the palette used on hair and clothes, you specify which look
+type you want to change, then the palette you want to use. Make sure you specify
+a palette number that exists/is usable by the client you use.
+
+ // This will change your hair(6), so that it uses palette 8, what ever your
+ // palette 8 is your hair will use that colour
+
+ setlook 6,8;
+
+ // This will change your clothes(7), so they are using palette 1, whatever
+ // your palette 1 is, your clothes will then use that set of colours.
+
+ setlook 7,1;
+
+Here are the possible look types:
+
+ 0 - Base sprite
+ 1 - Hairstyle
+ 2 - Weapon
+ 3 - Head bottom
+ 4 - Head top
+ 5 - Head mid
+ 6 - Hair color
+ 7 - Clothes color
+ 8 - Shield
+ 9 - Shoes
+
+Whatever 'shoes' means is anybody's guess, ask Gravity - the client does nothing
+with this value. It still wants it from the server though, so it is kept, but
+normally doesn't do a thing.
+
+Only the look data for hairstyle, hair color and clothes color are saved to the
+char server's database and will persist. The rest freely change as the character
+puts on and removes equipment, changes maps, logs in and out and otherwise you
+should not expect to set them. In fact, messing with them is generally
+hazardous, do it at your own risk, it is not tested what will this actually do -
+it won't cause database corruption and probably won't cause a server crash, but
+it's easy to crash the client with just about anything unusual.
+
+However, it might be an easy way to quickly check for empty view IDs for
+sprites, which is essential for making custom headgear.
+
+Since a lot of people have different palettes for hair and clothes, it's
+impossible to tell you what all the colour numbers are. If you want a serious
+example, there is a Stylist script inside the default eAthena installation that
+you can look at, this may help you create a Stylist of your own:
+'custom\dye.txt'

+---------------------------------------
+
+*getitem <item id>,<amount>{,<character ID>};
+*getitem "<item name>",<amount>{,<character ID>};
+
+This command will give a specific amount of specified items to the target
+character. If the character is not online, nothing will happen.
+If <character ID> is not specified, items will be created in the invoking
+character inventory instead.
+
+In the first and most commonly used version of this command, items are
+referred to by their database ID number found inside 'db/item_db.txt'.
+
+ getitem 502,10 // The person will receive 10 apples
+ getitem 617,1 // The person will receive 1 Old Violet Box
+
+Giving an item ID of -1 will give a specified number of random items from the
+list of those that fall out of Old Blue Box. Unlike in all other cases, these
+will be unidentified, if they turn out to be equipment. This is exactly what's
+written in the Old Blue Box's item script.
+
+Other negative IDs also correspond to other random item generating item tables:
+
+Giving an item ID of -2 will produce the effects of Old Violet Box.
+Giving an item ID of -3 will produce the effects of Old Card Album.
+Giving an item ID of -4 will produce the effects of Gift Box.
+Giving an item ID of -5 will produce the effects of Worn Out Scroll, which, in
+current SVN, drops only Jellopies anyway.
+
+This transaction is logged if the log script generated transactions option is
+enabled.
+
+You may also create an item by it's name in the 'english name' field in the
+item database:
+
+ getitem "RED_POTION",10;
+
+Which will do what you'd expect. If it can't find that name in the database,
+apples will be created anyway. It is often a VERY GOOD IDEA to use it like this.
+
+This is used in pretty much all NPC scripts that have to do with items and
+quite a few item scripts. For more examples check just about any official script.

+
+*getitem2 <item id>,<amount>,<identify>,<refine>,<attribute>,<card1>,<card2>,<card3>,<card4>{,<character ID>};
+*getitem2 "<Item name>",<amount>,<identify>,<refine>,<attribute>,<card1>,<card2>,<card3>,<card4>{,<character ID>};
+
+This command will give an amount of specified items to the invoking character.
+If an optional character ID is specified, and that character is currently
+online, items will be created in their inventory instead. If they are not
+online, nothing will happen. It works essentially the same as 'getitem' (it even
+works for negative ID numbers the same way, which is kinda silly) but is a lot
+more flexible, since it allows you to give the player an item altered with it's
+specific properties.
+
+Those parameters that are different from 'getitem' are:
+
+identify - Whether you want the item to be identified or not, 0 unidentified,
+ 1 identified.
+refine - For how many plusses will it be refined.
+ It will not let you refine an item higher than +10, if you
+ specify more it'll still be 10.
+attribute - Whether the item is broken (1) or not (0) and NOT an elemental
+ attribute.
+card1,2,3,4 - If you want a card compound to it, place the card ID number into
+ the specific card slot. Card ID numbers also found in
+ 'db/item_db.txt'
+
+Card1-card4 values are also used to store name information for named items, as
+well as the elemental property of weapons and armor. You can create a named item
+in this manner, however, if you just need a named piece of standard equipment,
+it is much easier to the 'getnameditem' function instead.
+
+You will need to keep these values if you want to destroy and then perfectly
+recreate a named item, for this see 'getinventorylist'.
+
+If you still want to try creating a named item with this command because
+'getnameditem' won't do it for you cause it's too limited, you can do it like
+this. Careful, minor magic ahead.
+
+ // First, let's get an ID of a character who's name will be on the item.
+ // Only an existing character's name may be there.
+ // Let's assume our character is 'Adam' and find his ID.
+
+ set @charid,getcharid(0,"Adam");
+
+ // Now we split the character ID number into two portions with a binary
+ // shift operation. If you don't understand what this does, just copy it.
+
+ set @card3, @charid & 65535;
+ set @card4, @charid >> 16;
+
+ // If you're inscribing non-equipment, @card1 must be 254.
+ // Arrows are also not equipment. :)
+ set @card1,254;
+
+ // For named equipment, card2 means the Star Crumbs and elemental
+ // crystals used to make this equipment. For everything else, it's 0.
+
+ set @card2,0;
+
+ // Now, let's give the character who invoked the script some
+ // Adam's Apples:
+
+ getitem2 512,1,1,0,0,@card1,@card2,@card3,@card4;
+
+This wasn't tested with all possible items, so I can't give any promises,
+experiment first before relying on it.
+
+To create equipment, continue this example it like this:
+
+ // We've already have card3 and card4 loaded with correct
+ // values so we'll just set up card1 and card2 with data
+ // for an Ice Stiletto.
+
+ // If you're inscribing equipment, @card1 must be 255.
+ set @card1,255;
+
+ // That's the number of star crumbs in a weapon.
+ set @sc,2;
+
+ // That's the number of elemental property of the weapon.
+ set @ele,1;
+
+ // And that's the wacky formula that makes them into
+ // a single number.
+ set @card2,@ele+((@sc*5)<<8);
+
+ // That will make us an Adam's +2 VVS Ice Stiletto:
+
+ getitem2 1216,1,1,2,0,@card1,@card2,@card3,@card4;
+
+Experiment with the number of star crumbs - I'm not certain just how much will
+work most and what it depends on. The valid element numbers are:
+
+ 1 - Ice, 2 - Earth 3 - Fire 4 - Wind.
+
+You can, apparently, even create duplicates of the same pet egg with this
+command, creating a pet which is the same, but simultaneously exists in two
+eggs, and may hatch from either, although, I'm not sure what kind of a mess will
+this really cause.

+
+ itemid - Found in 'db/item_db.txt'
+ amount - Amount you want produced
+ X - The X coordinate
+ Y - The Y coordinate

+*delitem "<item name>",<amount>;
+
+This command will take a specified amount of items from the invoking character.
+As all the item commands, this one uses the ID of the item found inside
+'db/item_db.txt'. The items are destroyed - there is no way an NPC can simply
+own items and have an inventory of them, other as by destroying and recreating
+them when needed.
+
+ delitem 502,10 // The person will lose 10 apples
+ delitem 617,1 // The person will lose 1 Old Violet Box
+
+It is always a good idea to to check if the player actually has the item before
+you take it from them, Otherwise, you could try to delete items which the
+players don't actually have, which won't fail and won't give an error message,
+but might open up ways to exploit your script.

+run, items can be used during scripts until disable_items is called.
+To avoid possible exploits, when enable_items is invoked, it will only enable
+item usage while running that script in particular. Note that if a different
+script also calls enable_items, it will override the last call (so you may
+want to call this command at the start of your script without assuming the

+*guildopenstorage()
+
+This function works the same as 'openstorage' but will open a guild storage
+window instead for the guild storage of the guild the invoking character belongs
+to. This is a function because it returns a value - 0 if the guild storage was
+opened successfully and 1 if it wasn't. (Notice, it's a ZERO upon success.)
+Since guild storage is only accessible to one character at one time, it may fail
+if another character is accessing the guild storage at the same time.

+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*guildchangegm(<guild id>,<new master's name>)
+
+This function will change the Guild Master of a guild. The ID is the guild's
+id, and the new guildmaster's name must be passed.
+
+Returns 1 on success, 0 otherwise.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*guildgetexp <amount>;

+invoking character belongs to. It will silently fail if they do not belong to
+any guild.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*guildskill <skill id>,<level>
+
+This command will bump up the specified guild skill by the specified number of
+levels. This refers to the invoking character and will only work if the invoking
+character is a member of a guild AND it's guildmaster, otherwise no failure
+message will be given and no error will occur, but nothing will happen - same
+about the guild skill trying to exceed the possible maximum. The full list of
+guild skills is available in 'db/skill_db.txt', these are all the GD_ skills at
+the end.

+The flag parameter is currently not functional and it's a mystery of what it
+would actually do. (Though probably, like for character skills, it would allow
+temporary bumping.) Using this command will bump the guild skill up permanently.

+
+*resetlvl <action type>;
+
+This is a character reset command, meant mostly for rebirth script supporting
+Advanced jobs, which will reset the invoking character's stats and level
+depending on the action type given. Valid action types are:
+
+ 1 - Base level 1, Job level 1, 0 skill points, 0 base xp, 0 job xp, wipes the
+ status effects, sets all stats to 1. If the new job is 'Novice High', give
+ 100 status points, give First Aid and Play Dead skills.
+ 2 - Base level 1, Job level 1, 0 skill points, 0 XP/JXP. Skills and attribute
+ values are not altered.
+ 3 - Base level 1, base xp 0. Nothing else is changed.
+ 4 - Job level 1, job xp 0. Nothing else is changed.
+
+In all cases it will also unequip everything the character has on.
+
+Even though it doesn't return a value, it is used as a function in the official
+rebirth scripts. Ask AppleGirl why.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*resetstatus;
+
+This is a character reset command, which will reset the stats on the invoking
+character and give back all the stat points used to raise them previously.
+Nothing will happen to any other numbers about the character.
+
+Used in reset NPC's (duh!)
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*resetskill;
+
+This command takes off all the skill points on the invoking character, so they
+only have Basic Skill blanked out (lvl 0) left, and returns the points for them
+to spend again. Nothing else will change but the skills. Quest skills will also
+reset if 'quest_skill_reset' option is set to Yes in 'battle_athena.conf'. If
+the 'quest_skill_learn' option is set in there, the points in the quest skills
+will also count towards the total.

+*sc_start4 <effect type>,<ticks>,<value 1>,<value 2>,<value 3>,<value 4>{,<target ID number>};
+*sc_end <effect type>{,<target ID number>};
+
+These command bestow a status effect on the invoking character. This command is
+used a lot in the item scripts.
+
+ // This would poison them for 10 min
+ sc_start SC_Poison,600000,0;
+
+Effect type is a number of effect, 'db/const.txt' lists the common (mostly
+negative) status effect types as constants, starting with 'SC_'. You can also
+use this to give someone an effect of a player-cast spell:
+
+ // This will bless someone as if with Bless 10:
+ sc_start 10,240000,10;
+
+Extra argument's meaning differs depending on the effect type, for most effects
+caused by a player skill the extra argument means the level of the skill that
+would have been used to create that effect, for others it might have no meaning
+whatsoever. You can actually bless someone with a 0 bless spell level this way,
+which is fun, but weird.
+
+The target ID number, if given, will cause the status effect to appear on a
+specified character, instead of the one attached to the running script. This has
+not been properly tested.
+
+'sc_start2' is perfectly equivalent, but unlike 'sc_start', a status change
+effect will only occur with a specified percentage chance. 10000 given as the
+chance is equivalent to a 100% chance, 0 is a zero.
+
+'sc_start4' is just like sc_start, however it takes four parameters for the
+status change instead of one. What these values are depends on the status
+change in question. For example, elemental armor defense takes the following
+four values:
+- val1 is the first element, val2 is the resistance to the element val1.
+- val3 is the second element, val4 is the resistance to said element.
+eg: sc_start4 SC_DefEle,60000,Ele_Fire,20,Ele_Water,-15;
+
+'sc_end' will remove a specified status effect. If SC_All is used (-1), it will
+do a complete removal of all statuses (although permanent ones will re-apply).
+
+You can see the full list of status effects caused by skills in
+'src/map/status.h' - they are currently not fully documented, but most of that
+should be rather obvious.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*skilleffect <skill id>,<number>;
+
+This command will display the visual and sound effects of a specified skill (see
+'db/skill_db.txt' for a full list of skills) on the invoking character's sprite.
+Nothing but the special effects and animation will happen. If the skill's normal
+effect displays a floating number, the number given will float up.
+
+ // This will heal the character with 2000 hp, buff with
+ // Bless 10 and Increase AGI 5, and display appropriate
+ // effects.
+ mes "Blessed be!";
+ skilleffect 28,2000;
+ heal 2000,0;
+ skilleffect 34,0;
+ // That's bless 10.
+ sc_start 10,240000,10;
+ skilleffect 29,0;
+ // That's agi 5
+ sc_start 12,140000,5;
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*npcskilleffect <skill id>,<number>,<x>,<y>;
+
+This command behaves identically to 'skilleffect', however, the effect will not
+be centered on the invoking character's sprite, nor on the NPC sprite, if any,
+but will be centered at map coordinates given on the same map as the invoking
+character.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*specialeffect <effect number>;
+
+This command will display special effect with the given number, centered on the
+specified NPCs coordinates, if any. For a full list of special effect numbers
+known see 'doc/effect_list.txt'. Some effect numbers are known not to work in
+some client releases. (Notably, rain is absent from any client executables
+released after April 2005.)
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*specialeffect2 <effect number>;
+
+This command behaves identically to the 'specialeffect', but the effect will be
+centered on the invoking character's sprite.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*statusup <stat>;
+
+This command will bump a specified stat of the invoking character up by one
+permanently. Stats are to be given as number, but you can use these constants to
+replace them:
+
+bStr - Strength
+bVit - Vitality
+bInt - Intelligence
+bAgi - Agility
+bDex - Dexterity
+bLuk - Luck
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*statusup2 <stat>,<amount>;
+
+This command will bump a specified stat of the invoking character up by the
+specified amount permanently. The amount can be negative. See 'statusup'.
+
+ // This will decrease a character's Vit forever.
+ statusup bVit,-1;

+*bonus3 <bonus type>,<val1>,<val2>,<val3>;
+*bonus4 <bonus type>,<val1>,<val2>,<val3>,<val4>;
+
+These commands are meant to be used in item scripts. They will probably work
+outside item scripts, but the bonus will not persist for long. They, as
+expected, refer only to an invoking character.
+
+You can find the full list of possible bonuses and which command to use for each
+kind in 'doc/item_bonus.txt'.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*skill <skill id>,<level>{,<flag>};
+*addtoskill <skill id>,<level>{,<flag>}
+
+These commands will give the invoking character a specified skill. This is also
+used for item scripts.
+
+Level is obvious. Skill id is the ID number of the skill in question as per
+'db/skill_db.txt'. It is not known for certain whether this can be used to give
+a character a monster's skill, but you're welcome to try with the numbers given
+in 'db/mob_skill_db.txt'.
+
+Flag is 0 if the skill is given permanently (will get written with the character
+data) or 1 if it is temporary (will be lost eventually, this is meant for card
+item scripts usage.). The flag parameter is optional, and defaults to 1 in
+'skill' and to 2 in 'addtoskill'.
+
+Flag 2 means that the level parameter is to be interpreted as a stackable
+additional bonus to the skill level. If the character did not have that skill
+previously, they will now at 0+the level given.
+
+// This will permanently give the character Stone Throw (TF_THROWSTONE,152), at
+// level 1.
+ skill 152,1,0;
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*nude;
+
+This command will unequip anything equipped on the invoking character.

+It is not required to do this when changing jobs since 'jobchange' will unequip
+everything not equippable by the new job class anyway.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*disguise <Monster ID>;
+*undisguise;
+
+This command disgueses current player with a monster sprite.
+The disguise is disappearing on re-login or on 'undisguise' command.
+
+Note: It doesn't work with "Pets with equipment on"
+Note: If u're a Sniper, u'd get an old Falcon over your head
+Note: You can kill yourself with some skills
+Note: Monsters of your type could heal you

+4,3 Marriage-related commands
+\\
+---------------------------------------
+*marriage("<spouse name>");
+
+This function will marry two characters, the invoking character and the one
+referred to by name given, together, setting them up as each other's marriage
+partner. No second function call has to be issued (in current SVN at least) to
+make sure the marriage works both ways. The function returns 1 upon success, or
+0 if the marriage could not be completed, either because the other character
+wasn't found or because one of the two characters is already married.
+
+This will do nothing else for the marriage except setting up the spouse ID for
+both of these characters. No rings will be given and no effects will be shown.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*wedding;
+
+This command will call up wedding effects - the music and confetti - centered on
+the invoking character.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*divorce()
+
+This function will un-marry the invoking character from whoever they were
+married to. Both will no longer be each other's marriage partner, (at least in
+current SVN, which prevents the cases of multi-spouse problems). It will return
+1 upon success or 0 if the character was not married at all.
+
+This function will also destroy both wedding rings and send a message to both
+players, telling them they are now divorced.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+*adopt "<parent name>","<parent name>","<novice name>";
+*adopt("<parent name>","<parent name>","<novice name>")
+
+This command will set up a novice as a baby of a married couple. All three are
+referred to by character name. The correct variables are set on all three
+characters in the same call. The command will unequip anything the novice has
+equipped and make them a Job_Baby class, as well as send them a 'your job has
+been changed' message.
+
+Beware of calling this from inside a 'callfunc' function, cause upon successful
+adoption, this command returns a zero, as if it were a function. This is likely
+to screw up execution of a 'return' command. You may try to call it as a
+function instead, but it doesn't return anything upon an error, which may also
+cause script execution to throw up errors.
+
+Nothing will happen (and nothing will be returned either) if either future
+parent is below base level 70 and/or if any of the three characters is not found
+online.

+
+Makes a character follow or stop following someone. This command does the same as the @follow command.
+The main difference is that @follow can use character names, and this commands needs the Account ID for the target.
+
+Example(s):

+
+* mobspawn (<monster name>,<monster ID>,<mapname>,<x>,<y>)
+* mobRemove <GID>;
+
+This is used to spawn a monster and return it's Game ID, to be used
+in the unit/mobcontrol commands.
+
+Note, I will use the stuff here in the examples for the unitcontrol.
+
+Example(s):
+
+//Spawns a poring named poi poi and put's it's GID in .GID.
+ set .GID,mobspawn("Poi Poi",1002,"prontera.gat",160,180);
+//would kill our poring.
+ mobRemove .GID;
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+* getmobdata (<GID>,<arrayname>)
+* setmobdata <GID>,<parameter>,<new value>;
+
+This is used to get and set special data related to the monster.
+With getmobdata, the array given will be filled with the current data. In setmobdata
+the indexes in the array would be used to set that data on the monster.
+Parameters (indexes) are:
+
+0 = class (big, small, normal) 7 = y 14 = hair style 21 = weapon
+1 = level 8 = speed 15 = hair color 22 = shield (again)
+2 = HP 9 = mode (see doc/mob_db_mode_list.txt) 16 = head gear bottom 23 = looking dir
+3 = max HP 10 = special AI state (?) 17 = head gear middle 24 = killer state (1 or 0)
+4 = master ID (aid of the master, summon) 11 = SC option 18 = head gear top 25 = callback flag
+5 = map index 12 = sex 19 = cloth color 26 = no random walk (1 or 0)
+6 = x 13 = class (Monster ID, Job ID) 20 = shield
+
+Example(s):
+
+//this will set all the mobdata in the @array variable. (@array[1] being level, @array[13] class etc)
+ getmobdata .GID,@array;
+
+//set the max hp of our poring to 1000.
+ setmobdata .GID,3,1000;
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+* mobassist <GID>,<target id>;
+This will make the monster assist the Target ID as if it was a summon of it.
+Example(s):
+
+/this will make our poring assist the current attached player! >:3
+ mobassist .GID,getcharid(3);
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+* mobattach <GID>{,"<NPC Name>"};
+
+GID is the GID of a monster, NPC or account id. The NPC running or
+he NPC name given is used to attach the monster.
+
+By attaching a monster, the NPC to which it is attached is ran on special actions by the monster.
+The system will set specific data in the .ai_action variable array on the NPC invoked.
+The special AI actions types are set in the .ai_action at place AI_ACTION_TAR_TYPE
+
+More AI_ vars are set in const.txt, and you can also look at sample/monstercontroller.cpp:
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+* unitwalk <GID>,<x>,<y>;
+* unitwalk <GID>,<mapid>;
+
+This is one command, but can be used in two ways. If only the first argument is given,
+the unit whose GID is given will start walking towards the map with the given mapid
+(we believe these are the mapindexes found in db/map_index.txt).
+
+When 2 arguments are passed, the given unit will walk to the given x,y coordinates on
+the map where the unit currently is.
+
+Example(s):
+
+//Will move/walk the poring we made to the coordinates 150,150
+ unitwalk .GID,150,150;
+
+//Will move the poring towards alberta (if my assumed mapindexes are correct).
+ unitwalk .GID,3;

+* unitattack <GID>,<Target ID>;
+* unitstop <GID>;
+* unittalk <GID>,<Text>;
+* unitemote <GID>,<Emote>;
+* unitdeadsit <GID>,<Action?>;
+
+Okay, these commands should be fairly self explaining.
+
+For the emotions, you can look in db/const.txt for prefixes with e_
+The unitdeadsit uses an action, not exactly sure why it's named unitdeadsit...

+The shop which is called by callshop (as long as an npcshop* command is executed
+from that NPC (see note 1)) will trigger the labels OnBuyItem and OnSellitem. These
+labels can take over handling for relatively the buying of items from the shop
+and selling the items to a shop. Via these labels you can customize the way an item
+is bought or sold by a player.
-The flag values are: 1 invokes the buying window, 2 invokes the selling
-window, any other value invokes the buy/sell dialogue.

+hold information about the name id (item id) sold and the amount sold of it. Same

-of possible equipment slots.
+These commands will make the NPC object in question move around the map. As they
+currently are, they are a bit buggy and are not useful for much more than making
+an NPC move randomly around the map. (see 'npc/custom/devnpc.txt' for an example
+of such usage)
----------------------------------------
+'npcspeed' will set the NPCs walking speed to a specified value. As in the
+@speed GM command, 200 is the slowest possible speed while 0 is the fastest
+possible (instant motion). 100 is the default character walking speed.
+'npcwalkto' will start the NPC sprite moving towards the specified coordinates
+on the same map as it is currently on.
+'npcstop' will stop the motion.
-*successremovecards <equipment slot>;
+While in transit, the NPC will be clickable, but invoking it will cause it to
+stop motion, which will make it's coordinates different from what the client
+computed based on the speed and motion coordinates. The effect is rather
+unnerving.
-This command will remove all cards from the item found in the specified
-equipment slot of the invoking character, create new card items and give them to
-the character. If any cards were removed in this manner, it will also show a
-success effect.
+Only a few NPC sprites have walking animations, and those that do, do not get
+the animation invoked when moving the NPC, due to the problem in the npc walking

-This function will marry two characters, the invoking character and the one
-referred to by name given, together, setting them up as each other's marriage
-partner. No second function call has to be issued (in current SVN at least) to
-make sure the marriage works both ways. The function returns 1 upon success, or
-0 if the marriage could not be completed, either because the other character
-wasn't found or because one of the two characters is already married.
+While NPCWalkToXY just makes the NPC 'walk' to the coordinates given
+(which sometimes gives problems if the path isn't a straight line without objects),
+this command just moves the NPC. It basically warps out and in on the current and given spot.
-This will do nothing else for the marriage except setting up the spouse ID for
-both of these characters. No rings will be given and no effects will be shown.

-
----------------------------------------
+*debugmes "<message>";
-*ispartneron()
+This command will send the message to the server console (map-server window). It
+will not be displayed anywhere else.
-This function returns 1 if the invoking character's marriage partner is

+ // the other"
---------------------------------------
-*getpartnerid()
-
-This function returns the character ID of the invoking character's marriage
-partner, if any. If the invoking character is not married, it will return 0,
-which is a quick way to see if they are married:
-
- if (getpartnerid()) mes "I'm not going to be your girlfriend!";
- if (getpartnerid()) mes "You're married already!";
-
----------------------------------------
+*logmes "<message>";
-*warppartner("<map name>",<x>,<y>);
+This command will write the message given to the map server npc log file, as
+specified in 'conf/log_athena.conf'. In the TXT version of the server, the log
+file is 'log/npclog.log' by default. In the SQL version, if SQL logging is
+enabled, the message will go to the 'npclog' table, otherwise, it will go to the
+same log file.
-This function will find the invoking character's marriage partner, if any, and
-warp them to the map and coordinates given. Go kidnap that spouse. :) It will
-return 1 upon success and 0 if the partner is not online, the character is not
-married, or if there's no invoking character (no RID). 0,0 will, as usual,
-normally translate to random coordinates.
+If logs are not enabled, nothing will happen.
---------------------------------------
-*adopt "<parent name>","<parent name>","<novice name>";
-*adopt("<parent name>","<parent name>","<novice name>");
-
-This command will set up a novice as a baby of a married couple. All three are
-referred to by character name. The correct variables are set on all three
-characters in the same call. The command will unequip anything the novice has
-equipped and make them a Job_Baby class, as well as send them a 'your job has
-been changed' message.
+*globalmes "<message>"{,"<NPC name>"};
-Beware of calling this from inside a 'callfunc' function, cause upon successful
-adoption, this command returns a zero, as if it were a function. This is likely
-to screw up execution of a 'return' command. You may try to call it as a
-function instead, but it doesn't return anything upon an error, which may also
-cause script execution to throw up errors.
+This command will send a message to the chat window of all currently connected
+characters.
-Nothing will happen (and nothing will be returned either) if either future
-parent is below base level 70 and/or if any of the three characters is not found
-online.
+If NPC name is specified, the message will be sent as if the sender would be
+the npc with the said name.

+specify (if you only specify one) and the two numbers you specify if you give it
+two.
-*getitemname(<item id>)
+rand(10) would result in 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 or 9
-Given the database ID number of an item, this function will return the text
-stored in the 'japanese name' field (which, in eAthena, stores an english name
-the players would normally see on screen.)

---------------------------------------
-*makepet <pet id>;
+*viewpoint <action>,<x>,<y>,<point number>,<color>;
-This command will create a pet egg and put it in the invoking character's
-inventory. The kind of pet is specified by pet ID numbers listed in
-'db/pet_db.txt'. The egg is created exactly as if the character just successfuly
-caught a pet in the normal way.
+This command will mark places on the mini map in the client connected to the
+invoking character. It uses the normal X and Y coordinates from the main map.
+The colors of the marks are defined using a hexidecimal number, same as the ones
+used to color text in 'mes' output, but are written as hexadecimal numbers in C.
+(They look like 0x<six numbers>.)
- // This will make you a poring:
- makepet 1002;
+Action is what you want to do with a point, 1 will set it, while 2 will clear
+it. Point number is the number of the point - you can have several. If more than
+one point is drawn at the same coordinates, they will cycle, which can be used
+to create flashing marks.
-Notice that you absolutely have to create pet eggs with this command. If you try
-to give a pet egg with 'getitem', pet data will not be created by the char
-server and the egg will disappear when anyone tries to hatch it.
+ // This command will show a mark at coordinates X 30 Y 40, is mark number 1,
+ // and will be red.
+
+ viewpoint 1,30,40,1,0xFF0000;
----------------------------------------
+This will create three points:
-*getexp <base xp>,<job xp>;
+ viewpoint 1,30,40,1,0xFF0000;
+ viewpoint 1,35,45,2,0xFF0000;
+ viewpoint 1,40,50,3,0xFF0000;
-This command will give the invoking character a specified number of base and job
-experience points. Can be used as a quest reward. Negative amounts of experience
-were not tested but should work.
+And this is how you remove them:
- getexp 10000,5000;
+ viewpoint 2,30,40,1,0xFF0000;
+ viewpoint 2,35,45,2,0xFF0000;
+ viewpoint 2,40,50,3,0xFF0000;
+
+The client determines what it does with the points entirely, the server keeps no
+memory of where the points are set whatsoever.
-You can also use the "set" command with the constants defined in 'db/const.txt':
+---------------------------------------
- // These 2 combined has the same effect as the above command
- set BaseExp,BaseExp+10000;
- set JobExp,JobExp+5000;
+*cutin "<filename with no extension>",<position>;
-You can also reduce the ammount of experience points:
+This command will display a picture stored in the GRF file in the client for the
+player.
- set BaseExp,BaseExp-10000;
+The files are taken from '\data\texture\A_A£AII’„AI«§\illust' directory in the
+GRF file. The filename must be given with no extension, '.bmp' is added by the
+client itself and you can't have any other picture format displayed as a cutin.
+The biggest one that comes with the client is 400x503 pixels, and the smallest
+is 303x493 pixels, it is not known how big a picture has to be before the client
+goes insane. Bright magenta (color FF00FF) is considered to be transparent in
+these pictures. You can easily add and alter them, but how to do this is outside
+of the scope of this document.
----------------------------------------
+The position determines just where on screen the picture will appear:
+ 0 - bottom left corner
+ 1 - bottom middle
+ 2 - bottom right corner
+ 3 - middle of screen in a movable window with an empty title bar.
+ 4 - middle of screen without the window header, but still movable.
+ 255 - will remove the cutin previously displayed.
+
+Giving an empty string for the filename and 255 for the position will remove all
+cutin pictures. Any other position value will not cause a script error but will
+cause the player's client to curl up and die. Only one cutin may be on screen at
+any given time, any new cutins will replace it.
-*getinventorylist;
+ // This will display the picture of the 7th kafra,
+ // the one in orange and the mini-skirt :P
+ cutin "kafra_7",2;
-This command sets a bunch of arrays with a complete list of whatever the
-invoking character has in their inventory, including all the data needed to
-recreate these items perfectly if they are destroyed. Here's what you get:
+ // This will remove the displayed picture.
+ cutin "Kafra_7",255;
-@inventorylist_id[] - array of item ids.
-@inventorylist_amount[] - their corresponding item amounts.
-@inventorylist_equip[] - whether the item is equipped or not.
-@inventorylist_refine[] - for how much it is refined.
-@inventorylist_identify[] - whether it's refined.
-@inventorylist_attribute[] - whether it is broken.
-@inventorylist_card1[] - These four arrays contain card data for the items.
-@inventorylist_card2[] These data slots are also used to store names
-@inventorylist_card3[] inscribed on the items, so you can explicitly check

-@inventorylist_count - the number of items in these lists.
+ // This will remove all pictures displayed.
+ cutin "",255;

-command returns such a complete set of data, and could also be the only way to
-correctly handle an NPC trader for carded and named items who could resell them
-- since NPC objects cannot own items, so they have to store item data in
-variables and recreate the items.

+no title bar). See 'cutin'. To remove this cutin, use the regular 'cutin'
+command. Unlike the 'cutin' command, it will not take a filename, but will
+instead take an item ID. It will then refer to the text file listing card images
+which is normally found within your server's copy of the GRF file to find the
+real (korean) filename.

-easiest way to store all the skills and make the character something else for a

-This command is very ancient, it's origins are clouded in mystery.
-It will send a 'display id change' packet to everyone in the immediate area of

-an NPC sprite ID, or a monster ID. This effect is not stored anywhere and will
-not persist (Which is odd, cause it would be relatively easy to make it do so)
-and most importantly, will not work at all since this command was broken with
-the introduction of advanced classes. The code is written with the assumption
-that the lowest sprite IDs are the job sprites and the anything beyond them is
-monster and NPC sprites, but since the advanced classes rolled in, they got the
-ID numbers on the other end of the number pool where monster sprites float.
+*emotion <emotion number>{, target};
-As a result it is currently impossible to call this command with a valid view
-id. It will do nothing whatsoever if the view ID is below 4047. Getting it to
-run will actually just crash the client.
+This command makes an object display an emoticon sprite above their own as
+if they were doing that emotion. For a full list of emotion numbers,
+see 'db/const.txt' under 'e_'. The inobvious ones are 'e_what' (a question mark)
+and 'e_gasp' (the exclamation mark).
-It could be a real gem if it can be gotten to actually do what it's supposed to

-The behavior modified with the abovementioned commands will only be exibited if
-the pet is loyal and appropriate configuration options are set in

-Pet scripts in the database normally run whenever a pet of that type hatches
-from the egg. Other commands usable in item scripts (see 'bonus') will also
-happily run from pet scripts. Apparently, the pet-specific commands will also
-work in NPC scripts and modify the behavior of the current pet up until the pet
-is hatched again. (Which will also occur when the character is logged in again

-such command running from an NPC script will eventually persist, but apparently,

-buffing items.

-*npcspeed <speed value>;
-*npcwalkto <x>,<y>;

-These commands will make the NPC object in question move around the map. As they
-currently are, they are a bit buggy and are not useful for much more than making
-an NPC move randomly around the map. (see 'npc/custom/devnpc.txt' for an example
-of such usage)
-
-'npcspeed' will set the NPCs walking speed to a specified value. As in the
-@speed GM command, 200 is the slowest possible speed while 0 is the fastest
-possible (instant motion). 100 is the default character walking speed.
-'npcwalkto' will start the NPC sprite moving towards the specified coordinates
-on the same map as it is currently on.
-'npcstop' will stop the motion.
-
-While in transit, the NPC will be clickable, but invoking it will cause it to
-stop motion, which will make it's coordinates different from what the client
-computed based on the speed and motion coordinates. The effect is rather
-unnerving.
-
-Only a few NPC sprites have walking animations, and those that do, do not get
-the animation invoked when moving the NPC, due to the problem in the npc walking
-code, which looks a bit silly. You might have better success by defining a job-

-and place their coordinates into the variables specified when calling it. It
-will return 0 if the search was successful, and -1 if the parameters given were
-not variables or the search was not successful.
-
-Type is the type of object to search for:
-
- 0 - Character object
- 1 - NPC object
- 2 - Pet object
- 3 - Monster object.
-
-While 3 is meant to look for a monster object, no searching will be done if you
-specify type 3, and the function will always return -1.
-
-The search string is optional. If it is not specified, the location of the
-invoking character will always be returned for types 0 and 2, the location of
-the NPC running this function for type 1.
-If a search string is specified, for types 0 and 1, the character or NPC with
-the specified name will be located. If type is 3, the search will locate the
-current pet of the character who's name is given in the search string, it will
-NOT locate a pet by name.

-If the skill involves targeting a character, no targeting pointer will come up -
-the invoking character will automatically be the skill target.
-
-'doskill' is an alias for 'skilluseid'.
-
-'skillusepos' will specify a target map square for the skill to be used. If that

-
-This function will return 1 if the invoking character has all of the item
-IDs given equipped (if card IDs are passed, then it checks if the cards are
-inserted into slots in the equipment they are currently wearing). Theorically
-there is no limit to the number of items that may be tested for at the same time.

+scroll down a bit for the new version!
----------------------------------------
+On older trunk versions and stable:
-*isequippedcnt(<card id>{,<card id>{,<card id>{,<card id>}}})
+command is the name of the current character (strcharinfo(0))
+followed by ':' and the command and it's parameters.
-This function is similar to 'isequipped', but instead of 1 or 0, it will return
-the number of cards in the list given that were found on the invoking character.
+Example(s):
- if (isequippedcnt(4001,4005,4033,4196)=4) mes "Finally got all four poring cards?";
+//Will be executed as if a lvl 99 GM done the #option command.
+ charCommand strcharinfo(0)+":#option 0 0 0 Roy";
----------------------------------------
+Newer Trunk version:
-*cardscnt()
+The big change is that the character name is no longer needed.
+This also enabled the commands to run without a player attached (according to Lance).
-This function will return the number of cards inserted into the weapon currently
-equipped on the invoking character.
-While this function was meant for item scripts, it will work outside them:
+Example(s):
- if (cardscnt()==4) mes "So you've stuck four cards into that weapon, think you're cool now?";
+//this would do the same as above, but now doesn't need a player attached by default.
+ charCommand "#option 0 0 0 Roy";
---------------------------------------
-*getrefine()
+*unitskilluseid <GID>,<skill id>,<skill lvl>;
+*unitskillusepos <GID>,<skill id>,<skill lvl>,<x>,<y>;
-This function will return the number of plusses the weapon currently equipped on
-the invoking character has been refined for.
-While this function was meant for item scripts, it will work outside them:
+This is the replacement of the older commands, these use the same values for
+GID as the other unit* commands (See 'GID').
- if (getrefine()==10) mes "Wow. That's a murder weapon.";
+Skill ID is the ID of the skill, skill level is the level of the skill.

-http://webmonkey.wired.com/webmonkey/reference/color_codes/
+*charisalpha("<string>",<position>)
-http://www.december.com/html/spec/color.html
+This function will return 1 if the character number Position in the given string
+is a letter, 0 if it isn't a letter but a digit or a space.
---------------------------------------
-*rid2name(rid)
+*wedding_effect;
+Starts the effect used when a wedding is done (music and everything else)
+Example can be found in the wedding script.
-Converts rid to name. Note: The player/monster/NPC must be online/enabled.
-Good for PCKillEvent where you can convert 'killedrid' to the name of the player.
-
-Note: rid2name may not produce correct character names since rid = account id.
- It will return the current online character of the account only.

+* The Pet AI commands
-*function <function name>;
-*<function name>;
-*function <function name> {
-<code>
-}
+These commands will only work if the invoking character has a pet, and are meant
+to be executed from pet scripts. They will modify the pet AI decision-making for
+the current pet of the invoking character, and will NOT have any independent
+effect by themselves, which is why only one of them each may be in effect at any
+time for a specific pet. A pet may have 'petloot', 'petskillbonus',
+'petskillattack' OR 'petpetskillattack2' and 'petskillsupport' OR 'petheal' at
+the same time. 'petheal' is deprecated and is no longer used in the default pet
+scripts.
-(Skotlex stop being so selfish and give us all the commands T~T! J/k lol :P)
+*petskillbonus <bonus type>,<value>,<duration>,<delay>;
-This works like callfunc, but doesn't support arguments like callfunc. It's used for cleaner
-and fast script that doesn't require arguments for it to work. Also they must be inside a script.
-They're not separated scripts and they work more like labels.
+This command will make the pet give a bonus to the owner's stat (bonus type -
+bInt,bVit,bDex,bAgi,bLuk,bStr,bSpeedRate - for a full list, see the values
+starting with 'b' in 'db/const.txt')
-Note it looks like the normal declaration
+*petrecovery <status type>,<delay>;
-Usage:
+This command will make the pet cure a specified status condition. The curing
+actions will occur once every Delay seconds. For a full list of status
+conditions that can be cured, see the list of 'SC_' status condition constants
+in 'db/const.txt'
-You first Declare the function with function <function name>;.
+*petloot <max items>;
-Put the rest of your code. You can use then <function name>; to call the function. If it returns a value is unsure,
-test it if you want and give us some comments ;3
+This command will turn on pet looting, with a maximum number of items to loot
+specified. Pet will store items and return them when the maximum is reached or
+when pet performance is activated.
-And at least, but inside the script itself, put the function <function name> {<code>}.
+*petskillsupport <skill id>,<skill level>,<delay>,<percent hp>,<percent sp>;
+*petheal <level>,<delay>,<percent hp>,<percent sp>;
-Example:
+This will make the pet use a specified support skill on the owner whenever the
+HP and SP are below the given percent values, with a specified delay time
+between activations. The skill numbers are as per 'db/skill_db.txt'.
+'petheal' works the same as 'petskillsupport' but has the skill ID hardcoded to
+28 (Heal). This command is deprecated.
+It's not quite certain who's stats will be used for the skills cast, the
+character's or the pets. Probably, Skotlex can answer that question.
-prontera.gat,154,189,4 script Item seller 767,{
+*petskillattack <skill id>,<skill level>,<rate>,<bonusrate>;
+*petskillattack2 <skill id>,<damage>,<number of attacks>,<rate>,<bonusrate>;
-function SF_Selling;
+These two commands will make the pet cast an attack skill on the enemy the pet's
+owner is currently fighting. Skill IDs and levels are as per 'petskillsupport'.
+'petskillattack2' will make the pet cast the skill with a fixed amount of damage
+inflicted and the specified number of attacks.
-mes "I'll open this now if you have more than 50z and you are level 50 or bigger";
-next;
+All commands with delays and durations will only make the behavior active for
+the specified duration of seconds, with a delay of the specified number of
+seconds between activations. Rates are a chance of the effect occuring and are
+given in percent. 'bonusrate' is added to the normal rate if the pet intimacy is
+at the maximum possible.
-if (Zeny > 50) && (BaseLevel > 50) {
- mes "Welcome";
- next;
- SF_Selling;
- close;
-} else
+The behavior modified with the abovementioned commands will only be exibited if
+the pet is loyal and appropriate configuration options are set in
+'battle_athena.conf'.
-set @needed,50-BaseLevel;
-mes "You either are Level "+BaseLevel+", thus you need "+@needed+" more levels";

-close;
+Pet scripts in the database normally run whenever a pet of that type hatches
+from the egg. Other commands usable in item scripts (see 'bonus') will also
+happily run from pet scripts. Apparently, the pet-specific commands will also
+work in NPC scripts and modify the behavior of the current pet up until the pet
+is hatched again. (Which will also occur when the character is logged in again
+with the pet still out of the egg.) It is not certain for how long the effect of
+such command running from an NPC script will eventually persist, but apparently,
+it is possible to usefully employ them in usable item scripts to create pet
+buffing items.
-function SF_Selling {
+Nobody tried this before, so you're essentially on your own here.
- mes "Would you like to buy a phracon for 50z?";

+*bpet;
+This command opens up a pet hatching window on the client connected to the
+invoking character. It is used in item script for the pet incubators and will
+let the player hatch an owned egg. If the character has no eggs, it will just
+open up an empty incubator window.
+This is still usable outside item scripts.
---------------------------------------
-*getequipcardid (<equipment slot>,<card slot>);
-
-Returns value from equipped item slot in the indicated slot:
-
-getequipcardid(num,slot)
+*makepet <pet id>;
-where:
- num = eqip position slot
- slot = 0,1,2,3 (Card Slot N)
+This command will create a pet egg and put it in the invoking character's
+inventory. The kind of pet is specified by pet ID numbers listed in
+'db/pet_db.txt'. The egg is created exactly as if the character just successfuly
+caught a pet in the normal way.
-This func returns CARD ID, 255,254,-255 (for card 0, if the item is produced) it's useful
-when you want to check item cards or if it's signed. Useful for such quests as
-"Sign this refined item with players name" etc;
- Hat[0] +4 -> Player's Hat[0] +4
+ // This will make you a poring:
+ makepet 1002;
-By Lupus
+Notice that you absolutely have to create pet eggs with this command. If you try
+to give a pet egg with 'getitem', pet data will not be created by the char
+server and the egg will disappear when anyone tries to hatch it.
---------------------------------------
-
-*warpparty "mapname.gat",x,y,<party_id>;
-
-Warps a party to specified map and coordinate given the party ID, which you can get with
-getcharid(1). You can also request another party id given a member's name with getcharid(1,<player_name>).
-
-Example:
-mes "[Party Warper]";
-mes "Here you go!";
-close2;
-set @id,getcharid(1);
-warpparty "prontera.gat",150,100,@id;
-close;
-
----------------------------------------
-
-*warpchar "mapname.gat",x,y,<char_id>;
-
-Warps another player to specified map and coordinate given the char id, which you can get with
-getcharid(0,<player_name>). Obviously this is useless if you want to warp the same player that
-is executing this script, unless it's some kind of "chosen" script.
-
-Example:
-
-warpchar "prontera.gat",150,100,20000001;
-
----------------------------------------
-
-*warpguild "mapname.gat",x,y,<guild_id>;
-
-Warps a guild to specified map and coordinate given the guild id, which you can get with
-getcharid(2). You can also request another guild id given the member's name with getcharid(2,<player_name>).
-
-Example:
-
-warpguild "prontera.gat",x,y,Guild_ID;
