Dot Commands are are used for many various things, giving the user access to options and other helpful tidbits that are not found in the default interface for Ultima Online. While most other games might use either a /command or a [command on Pangaea it is .command so for those new to Pangaea but used to either Ultima on other platforms or other online games in general, this might be a little tricky to get used to but it isn't a huge hurdle to overcome.

Counselor Commands

A Counselor is a normal player who has decided to help out the staff by answering some of the lesser questions mostly to do with game play leaving the more serious questions for the Game Masters and Admins to answer. This being said, they have a set of dot commands that allow them to more easily help out those who are in need of assistance.

Command Description
.gms {text} This allows a counselor to send a broadcast to every staff member currently online.
.msg t This allows a counselor to send a message to a targeted player
.ooctalk This allows a counselor to politely remind another player that this is a roleplay shard and that their current conduct is not appropriate for such a shard.
.page This allows a counselor to check the current pages that are awaiting an answer.

Account Commands

These commands deal mainly with your account.

Command Description
.changemail Allows you to change the email address currently attached to your account.
.changepassword Allows you to change your password.
.checkmail Checks to see if you have any new in-game mail. This mail is generally automated reminders from staff about things such as a house decaying soon. Mail is automatically checked when you first log in.
.options Allows you to set some specialized options not available in the default options menu for Ultima Online such as job options, sound options as well as selling options.

Character Status Commands

The following commands have to deal with various character statistics that may not be readily visible through the default game user interface.

Command Description
.consider Displays your current murder counts.
.hunger Displays just how hungry your character currently is.
.myclass Displays your current class and it's Base Class category.
.statcap Displays your character's vitals as well as their total along with the total cap.
.where Gives you the current coordinates that your character is standing at on the world.

Combat Commands

These are commands that for the most part deal with combat related issues.

Command Description
.arm {1 2 or 3} This command will arm whichever weapon/shield set is assigned to the number chosen. The weapon and shield may be in any container in your pack.
.disarm Will remove your weapon/shield; .disarm [1 2 or 3] will assign what was disarmed to the number (see .arm). “.disarm bag” will allow you to designate a container.
.backstab Can only be used when you are in stealth mode. Will let you backstab a person.
.grab Used to quickly loot your OWN corpse.
.grab bag Used to quickly loot your OWN corpse into a targetted bag.
.lastsong Plays the last song that the bard last played. This does not reset on log out.
.use {bandage, lheal, heal, gheal, anyheal, lcure, cure, gcure, anycure, refresh, frefresh, dagger, lockpick or vault} Uses the specified item, particularly useful for using heal potions and cure potions.
.mayday For use only during a robbery by known murderers (reds). This should NEVER be used to when you have been killed by an npc, if you see a robbery or to alert about plague. This can be used to alert either Law or Imperial.
.plaguealert For use only when plague is present, it will alert all available Nature members to your location to help combat the spread of plague.
.panic When in a party, you can use the command to notify your party that you need assistance. A tracking arrow will appear over every party member, directing them to the paniced member. Only one party member can be paniced at a time. To "un-panic", just use .panic again

Emote Commands

The following commands allow you to emote very specific actions in game.

Command Description
.fall Allows you to emote an action in which a falling animation will occur as well as the emote *falls* appearing over your character's head.
.point Allows you to emote that your character has pointed at a non-static object.
.halt Should be used before engaging in PvP if your intended victim is running.

Guild Commands

The following commands pertain to the guild system.

Command Description
.resignfrommyguild Allows you to resign from your guild. It has a 30 minute delay before this takes effect so make sure to remain online until it does. For a quicker way to resign from the guild, simply click the guild button on the Paper Doll and resign that way, it is instantaneous this way. This command seems to be a remnant left over from when you had to resign from the guild stone.
