Introduction

This is Sinister Stair's Newbie guide, in the same tradition as the venerated Newbie Ramblings. I have played literally hundreds of LPmuds and Diku, so this guide comes from the viewpoint of someone familiar with muds but experiencing Lost Souls for the first time.

Differences

  • alias - works as you'd expect, but the syntax is set alias <alias> to <commands>
  • brief - instead of a toggle, there's brief and verbose
  • nickname - this isn't a substitution, but rather renames how you see things; not unique
  • depiction - LS is displayed in Diku style; if you prefer the LP style, this is what you want to tweak
  • brief combat

Must Know

Commands or topics that you absolutely must know about Lost Souls:

  • info - perhaps the most important command, this gives you OOC information on how to interact with trainers, item command words, etc.
  • attack preference - here you set your attack priority (e.g. weapon very high, punch low) or disable attacks you don't want to use (e.g. kick)
  • defense preference - here you set your defenses (e.g. block with shield, not your hand)
  • memorize
  • lens
  • keep and keep points
  • affiliation type

tt++

I use the tintin++ client and have most of the world mapped.
