|
| 272 | Golems are creatures that the player has some control over. Note that many |
|
|
| 273 | summoned creatures are considered golems, even if they are not called |
|
|
| 274 | golems. |
|
|
| 275 | |
|
|
| 276 | If you have a golem in control your spell type will be listed as golem, |
|
|
| 277 | with the creature name in parantheses. |
|
|
| 278 | |
|
|
| 279 | To control your golem, just press the fire key in the direction you want |
|
|
| 280 | your golem to move. Your golem will then start moving in that direction, |
|
|
| 281 | and keep moving in that direction until you change its direction. |
|
|
| 282 | |
|
|
| 283 | Note that once you leave the map that the golem is on, the golem will |
|
|
| 284 | disappear. Also, once you select another spell to cast, or change your |
|
|
| 285 | range type, your golem will disappear. |

429 | Shows a list of maps matching the regex <mapname> that are currently being |
| 465 | IM: In memory means whether the map is: 1) in memory, 2) swapped to disk, |
430 | known to the server. The different fields are Pl, I, Svd, Reset and Path: |
| 466 | 3) currently loading or 4) currently saving. |
431 | |
| 467 | TO: Timeout, when the map is swapped to disk. |
432 | =over 4 |
| 468 | Dif: Map difficulty. |
433 | |
| 469 | Reset: Real server time when the map is going to reset. |

436 | =item I: B<I>n memory, B<S>wapped out or B<L>oading. |
|
|
437 | |
|
|
438 | The server keeps maps in memory only for a short time (by default about |
|
|
439 | 40 seconds). After that time, it saves them to disk. As the server loads |
|
|
440 | most maps in the background it is possible that you can see a map that is |
|
|
441 | currently being loaded, but thats rare, as loading a map is fast. |
|

442 | |
|
|
443 | =item Svd: the amount of seconds the map was last saved (++ means >99). |
|
|
444 | |
|
|
445 | The server by default tries to save each map at least every 20 seconds if |
|
|
446 | it changed, so in case of a disastrous crash (one where the server cannot |
|
|
447 | emergency save), at most 20 seconds of gameplay are lost. |

|

451 | Most maps will not reset as long as players are on it, and usually the |

|
|
| 976 | Then you can use the 's' and |

| 977 | 'd' keys for searching for and |
|
|
| 978 | disarming traps. |
