SPEEDWALKS! (Server Side, holy frack!)
Speedwalking is here on Ansalon!
Ok, this one should make getting around Ansalon a whole lot less painful, especially if you're playing from a phone, tablet, one of the web portals, etc. :)
You can now SPEEDWALK RECORD, walk wherever you're going normally, and it'll remember the trip for you. And not just directions — it'll record the other stuff you do along the way too. Open a door, unlock something, scan, look, whatever. When you get there, stop recording (SPEEDWALK RECORD), give it a name, and you've got it for next time.
You can also just type one in:
SPEEDWALK 3s,enter portal,6s,enter portal,7s4e,scream
(Don't do it, lava kills :P)
Already know the route? Add it and save it.
Someone else has a good one?
Copy/paste theirs and use it.
Send yours to somebody else.
Post them.
Borrow them.
Whatever works.
Speedwalks are just text, so they're really easy to share.
And they don't necessarily have to be just for getting from here to there.
Since you can stick regular commands in them...
I'm pretty sure you guys will come up with uses for this that I haven't even thought of yet. :)
They run one action at a time instead of blasting the whole thing into the game at once, and you can PAUSE, RESUME, or STOP them along the way.
That should make traveling way nicer on phones and mobile, and hopefully make playing through the web portals rock quite a bit more too.
Record 'em, make 'em, copy/paste 'em, share 'em, and let me know what you manage to break. :p
For all the syntax and examples:
