260
261Golems are creatures that the player has some control over. Note that many
262summoned creatures are considered golems, even if they are not called
263golems.
264
265If you have a golem in control your spell type will be listed as golem,
266with the creature name in parantheses.
267
268To control your golem, just press the fire key in the direction you want
269your golem to move. Your golem will then start moving in that direction,
270and keep moving in that direction until you change its direction.
271
272Note that once you leave the map that the golem is on, the golem will
273disappear. Also, once you select another spell to cast, or change your
274range type, your golem will disappear.

360spells to keys like this: 340I<playerbook>, tab I<spells>, the press the right mosue button on the
341spell I<medium healing> and choose C<bind invoke ... to a key>. It is
342recommended to bind a healing spell or potion to an easily-accessible-key,

537The mouse isn't a great way to move your character. It'll work, but you'll
538be handicapped unless you use the keyboard for this. However, the mouse
539has the following inventory uses:

472Show the current setting of the output-rate, or set it to the provided
473value. The server will try not to send (much) more than this many bytes
474per second to your client. If the rate is exceeded, the server tries to
475hold back less important information (such as new images), to increase
476responsiveness. The server-side default is usually quite high, around
477100000, so if you have a slow link and want to be able to control your
478character even when downloading faces, set this to a lower value, such as
4797000 (for ISDN).

991Traps appear at random in doors and in chests. Search those before you
