Updating CGHELP Files

We have been through an combat overhaul and a guild overhaul, and our CGHELP files have lagged behind.

I started working on Serenwilde's, found that we were not the only org out of date, so I figured I would post this here so others may also update theirs.


Common Issues:


TELEPORT and CLOTTING are now default on all newbies without any lesson investment. They can TELEPORT NEXUS, TELEPORT COLLEGIUM, and TELEPORT NEWTON right out of the portal.

MXP Link Formats - LINK(TEXT) is deprecated, and doesn't offer a great amount of control or utility. There is a new system we can take advantage of.
<div>[[..]] links to another helpfile in the same org.</div><div>
[<..>] links to a real helpfile.</div><div>
[!..!] links to an AB.</div><div>
[(..)] sends a real command.</div>

Lessons - Lots of out of date lesson counts.

A straight out of the Portal newbie starts with 150 lessons. The moment they learn anything, they gain an achievement that grants 5 additional lessons.

    LINK(TEXT) is deprecated? When did that happen?
    Everiine is a man, and is very manly. This MAN before you is so manly you might as well just gender bend right now, cause he's the manliest man that you ever did see. His manly shape has spurned many women and girlyer men to boughs of fainting. He stands before you in a manly manerific typical man-like outfit which is covered in his manly motto: "I am a man!"

    Pony power all the way, yo. The more Brontaurs the better.
  • I went through all the Serenwilde CHELPs and updated them for the new syntaxes
  • It would be neat if at some point newbies just came into the collegium with these skills already learned, seeing as they refund back the lessons anyhow

    I think needing to learn the learning commands in general is important though, and having the achievements in place so that they need to learn the skills, use AB, and then use the commands themselves to take advantage of them might be worth it.
  • I think that learning how to learn is a great fit for an introduction to the game, personally.
