    Hello all

    I need to know if it is possible to change a command name ?:

    Exemple :" Cashbox" instead of "bank" or whatever you can imagine

    and if not , is it possible to add texts with commands ?

    Thanks

    What do you mean "add texts with commands"?

    you can set a hotkey in razor or in game. To set one in game, go to the Macro Options tab (bottom left tab with the round arrow looking thing). Then click "Add", indicate which key you'd like to assign the hotkey to (also selecting whether you'd like to additionally click Ctrl, Alt, and/or Shift), then under actions, scroll down to "say" and type what you'd like to say.

    For example, if I hit Ctrl+Enter, my char says "Vendor buy the cross guards a stable bank balance or I ban thee!!", which makes my character say 7 commands at once.

    Some commands work with additional words before and after, and some don't. You'll have to do some trial and error with that.

    Boat commands, for example, only work if you use ONLY the command. If you say "Forward" your boat will move forward, but if you say "Forward, damn you!" nothing will happen.

    Like, I said, you'll just have to try it out and see what commands work with additional speech and what commands don't.

    Just remember that the commands go in order, relative to which npcs are nearby. Saying that string of commands near a vendor when you're trying to call the guards, will respond to the vendor and NOT call the guards. At least that was my understanding of Telamon's explaining it in irc once.

    Honestly, I've never tried it in that situation.

    Specific issues I've run into with that command string are:
    - say it at a bank and get the Rewards Vendor gump instead of bank box and balance. (uncommon, depends on location of Rewards Vendor)
    - say it at a stable to buy a horse and get asked what pet you wish to stable, instead. (common)

    If i'm not mistaken it was someone who tried to call the guards but got another vendor or bank box and it didn't call the guards, which prompted them asking Telamon in irc about it. In your case, using "Vendor buy the cross guards a stable bank balance or I ban thee!!" in the Occlo main area to call the guards would probably get you the plat vendor or bank vendor before it would call the guards since you would be in closer proximity to those npcs. However, if you put Guards first it should, in theory, call the guards before anything else.

    As far as I know there isn't any 'board' command.

    You can recall off the key and appear behind the mast. Or you can use the key to unlock the plank (sides of boat adjacent to the mast) then D-click the same part of the boat to open the plank. I think you then D-click the open plank to board but it's a while since I did it.
