Deliantra Dungeon Master Commands
The following commands are only available to you if you are dungeon master, that is, a kind of server administrator with special privileges.
abil
abil <player> <attribute> <value> abil will permanently change the ability scores of players. Attribute is one of str, dex, con, int, wis, pow, cha. Value may not exceed 30.
addexp
addexp <player> <how much> The player must have a skill readied. All experience added in this manner will go directly to the skill readied.
arrest
arrest <player>Puts the named player into the nearest cell (corresonding to the region he is in).
banish
banish <player> Kicks the named player and adds their current IP address to the banish file. This will prevent the named player from logging into the server (from their current IP). This is an in-game version of the ban function meant for short term relief of persistant goons and for DMs who do not have shell access. It is probably a good idea to clear out the banish file (usually at /var/crossfire/banish_file) on a regular basis and delete or move any entries to the ban_file if desired.
create
create <number> <bonus> <archtype> <variable1> <value1> <variable2> <value2> ... Creating items is rather dangerous and tends to crash the server when creating some items.
The number and bonus attributes may be left off, or the bonus itself may be left off any time. If a bonus is desired, number must be specified as well. Archtype must be specified in all cases. Variable and values may be left off at any time, but specifiying a variable requires a value also be specified.
Multipart values such as for an item name must be quoted.
Example:
create 5 +1 sword name "Spiffy Sword" face chicken.171This would create 5 +1 longswords named 'Spiffy Sword' that look like chickens. See also: patch, dump
debug

dump
dump <tag> Using dump, you can see the attributes of any item in the game. To find the object number of an item you wish to view, click on it. If this item is in your inventory, or you are standing over, click on yourself and the item tags will be displayed. see also: patch

hide
hideThis hides the DM from being seen by other players. This is done by making the player perpetually invisible. It also results in the player not showing up in the who command, maps comamnd, or being reported as a player on the metaserver.
Note that the DM can still do things that makes his presence known, eg, shout, other DM actions, etc.

reload

This is done in an as atomic way as possible so it is safe to do at anytime, but it will freeze the swerver for multiple seconds.
