- [301101] [Context Sensitive Menus] Context-sensitive menus are new menus players can use to access the various functionalities available on creatures and NPCs, such as accessing the shopkeeper interface, being trained by an NPC, ordering a pet to attack, or opening your bank box from a banker.
- The following NPC types can be hired; Bard, Beggar, Fighter, Paladin, Peasant, Pirate, Ranger, Sailor and Thief.
- NPCs tend to refuse to attack humans without reason. However, if ordered to “Guard”, they will defend you if whoever you attack retaliates.
- Pets may refuse to obey orders if your Animal Lore is too low.
- You used to be able to “Transfer” the pet to a Ranger with high Animal Lore, and have him “Friend” the pet to you. This was fixed on 23022k.
- Both NPCs and Pets may not attack a creature more powerful than they are.
- To use a command, say the name of the NPC or Pet followed by the order.
- You can say “All” instead of their names to give the order to everybody. Saying “All” does not work with commands that require targetting, unless you only have one pet.
