Variables are used to customize some aspects of Icesus. For each
defined variable, you can set it to a value, or unset it.
Most of them are simply on or off: 'set no_map on' turns the maps off,
'set no_map off' brings them back. Yes and no work too, and a bare
'set no_map' means on. The ones that take a value say so below.
Display Control Variables:
+----------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
| blind_access | A few text simplifications: skip graphical |
| | output where a plain-text form exists. For |
| | the full screen reader experience - maps |
| | off, colours off, combat summarised by |
| | round, reader-friendly rooms - type |
| | 'screenreader on' instead. |
| free_scroll | Don't stop for an <enter> after each page of |
| | text. |
| color_256 | Enable 256 color use to your client. |
| no_color_bar | Don't use color in the hp/sp/ep bars. |
| no_map | Turn off maps. |
| brief_map | Add a map when in 'brief' mode. |
| color_shape | Use color in 'shape' messages. |
| cls_movement | Clear the screen before displaying a long |
| | desc. Depending on your client, this can |
| | make a nice animation effect when moving |
| | around a city. (TF users might /set |
| | emulation=raw). |
+----------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
Battle Data:
+----------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
| mon_brief | Brief output in hp/sp/ep monitor. |
| alert | Warn others nearby when you cast area |
| | spells, so they can get clear. On by |
| | default; turn it off with 'set alert off' |
| | or 'set alert 0' -- 'unset alert' puts it |
| | back on. 'yes' warns only distant |
| | listeners. |
| psp_on | Also show PSP in various commands. |
| damage_report | Turn on your personal damage reports. |
| shape_percents | Shows percents in shape messages. |
| party_kill_exp | Show experience gained after each party |
| | kill. |
| party_report_off | Turn off the party report channel. |
| assign_verbosity | How much 'battle' prints back after you |
| | assign combat points: 'verbose' for the |
| | whole table, 'brief' for the summary line. |
| no_mage_warn | Stop the warning that one weak skill is |
| | dragging a spell's chance of success down. |
| buff_tracker | Which effects 'effects missing-beta' watches |
| | for, as a comma-separated list of |
| | abbreviations, each one optionally |
| | coloured: 'red:lb,poe,cyan:hst'. Run |
| | 'effects abbreviations' for the list, and |
| | 'effects buffreset' after you change this. |
+----------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
Channel Variables:
+----------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
| channel_litemode | Light a whole line instead of just the |
| | channel name. |
| channel_emote | Set the emote marker for channels. |
| last_lines | The default number of lines for the 'last' |
| | command. |
| zone_offset | An integer from -10 to 10 to add to the hour |
| | on the timestamps 'last' prints. This is |
| | your offset from GMT+2. |
+----------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
Gameplay Variables:
+----------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
| no_bank_confirmation | Don't confirm bank transactions. |
| tips | Display tips at login. |
| logon | A command line executed at logon. e.g. 'wear |
| | all;keep all', you will need to unset your |
| | delimiter to set this variable. |
| keep_to_container | Allows you to put kept items in a container |
| | which is also kept, as long as you are not |
| | wearing or wielding them at the time. |
| no_ancientwep | Prevent your ancient weapon from firing. |
| no_infusions | Do not use infusions. |
| no_shockwaves | Do not set off ranger shockwaves. |
| kill_autotarget | Automatically 'target' the monster you |
| | 'kill', so untargeted maneuvers and spells |
| | follow it. On by default; turn it off with |
| | 'set kill_autotarget off' or 'set |
| | kill_autotarget 0' -- 'unset |
| | kill_autotarget' puts it back on. |
| no_scouting | Disable scouting in the wilderness. |
| hide_control | Stop moving silently after a party kill. |
| | Walking always stops it, for everyone. |
+----------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
The 'Other' Variables:
+----------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
| typo | Get random type messages instead of 'What?'. |
| prompt | Set your prompt, 'help prompt'. |
| mail_notification | Enable notification for mail messages. |
| mail_entry_unread | Show only the unread messages when you enter |
| | 'mail'. |
| mail_no_cc | Skip the Cc: prompt when you send mail. |
| no_offline_tells | Don't replay the tells that arrived while |
| | you were away when you log in. |
| inform | Set your inform level (all|friends). |
| TZONE | Set your time zone, for the 'date' command |
| | -- run 'help date' for the names it |
| | accepts. 'last' reads it too, but knows a |
| | shorter list of names, so set zone_offset |
| | instead if 'last' prints the wrong times. |
| delim | Set your command delimiter. |
| party_moves | Always show party members' enter and exit |
| | messages. |
| store_emotes | Choose to save emotes in last tell. |

| | defeat idle disconnections. |
| sounds | Enable the sound effects subband. |
| DND | Set Do Not Disturb on, preventing tells. |
| | Wizards can bypass this. |
