A random assortment of commands

WIP Admin Documentation for commands and general VV stuff WIP

This document aims to bring both common and obscure commands to light for ease of use by the admin team.

Some of the examples used use arbitrary entity IDs as well as usernames for clarity. You should change these to fit your needs.

[TOC]

Classic/VV commands

If you do not have the permissions to use any number of these, you are either a Trial Admin, or you do not have Full Game Master Permissions.

Useful command strings

All of these are achievable by VVing an entity and clicking the server components instead of writing a command.

aGhost privacy strings

Change your ghost's layer with:

        vvwrite /player/Skarlet/AttachedEntity/Visibility/Layer 7

Putting your ghost on layer 7 puts you on a different layer than other ghosts, which means you won't be seen by anyone but those who can see layer 7.

With the same notion, setting your layer to 0 would make you visible to players. Sadly, you won't be able to set your layer back to normal after the fact and players will still see you no matter what layer you set yourself to, meaning you'll need to aghost once more.

You can also set the layer your eyes can see; by default, aghosts cannot see all layers. You have to manually set it with:

        vvwrite /player/Skarlet/AttachedEntity/Eye/VisibilityMask 7

Borg Laws

  • Check borg laws with: 
        player:entity "nikthechampiongr" laws:get

Upload tutorial and commands (Game Master)

Command Description Syntax
uploadfile Used to upload singular files. Works anywhere on your PC. uploadfile Skarlet/pretzels.ogg
uploadfolder Used to upload a folder. The folder's name has to be one word or it won't work. [NEEDS DOCUMENTATION]
loadprototype Uploads a YML and runs it. Make sure you have the right material in the YML before uploading. loadprototype

Uploading a prototype with uploadfile WIP

Uploading singular files is very straightforward, but if you are uploading multiple files for, example, a prototype, it can become quite tiresome. Here is an example to show exactly how to use this command to upload a prototype.

In this example, I will upload a set of pajamas:

        uploadfile Skarlet/pretzels.ogg

Then all you need to do is run playglobalsound the way I formatted

VV/Components Documentation

A lot of components have had their values unlocked to admins, so a lot of customization is possible now.

 stationID, then open StationBankAccountComponent

Lets you adjust the station's spesos account.

Some components are placed in the mind, rather than the entity. This allows you to change things such as antag status or custom objectives. Open the MindContainer component on a player's entity. The second string should say "Mind 1234567". Use the VV command with this to access components such as TraitorRole, InitialInfected, or RoleBriefing.

Toolshed

Toolshed commands must start with a > to work properly. The official (unfinished) toolshed documentation can be found here, but it is not necessary to read, nor to learn. Most toolshed commands have autocomplete.

Some commands to build off of

You can add explain in front of a toolshed command/string to show you exactly what they do and how to use them.

Command Description Permission
explain You can add this in front of a command/string to show you exactly what they do and how to use them.
entities Returns a list of all or specified entities. Game Master

String examples

Playing with entities

entities lets you affect multiple entities at once with your commands. You can mix and match commands to achieve a lot of useful or fun things. In the example here, we use entities to return a BQL list of all ghosts:

       > entities with Ghost visualize

This particular string is useful should you need to find out how many ghosts you have access to for an event.

> stations:get

Lets you find out what the station's entity ID is.

Code wishlist

Feel free to add commands to this wishlist to make buttons or verbs out of them; This would be useful for common usage commands.

  • 1 2 3 4
