Stendhal Groups

You can try group mode on the test server right now.

Group mode is for combat. You have already noticed that playing as a group of players is fun and effective at killing creatures. As a group you can now

• send messages to the whole group at once
• all take drops from creature corpses killed by group members before someone else can steal it.

The only thing to improve is the user interface. Currently you can use commands, but in future we would have a visual way to do this.

To start a group, just invite members:

/group invite someone

Then wait for them to accept the invite.

To send group messages:

/p message 

To leave the group:

/group part

When playing in groups you may all wish to share access to the corpse, so that the corpse isn't locked to one person. But you can also set it back to single person access. This is called the group lootmode. To change between lootmodes:

/group lootmode share
/group lootmode single

For a status report:

/group status

For the group leader to nominate someone else as a leader:

/group leader someone

For the group leader to kick someone from the group:

/group kick someone
