CLIPPETY-DO-DAH

by hazed

The final set of commands for displaying objects has now been implemented. You can now dangle an object from your keyring using 'CLIP objectname'. Unlike wearing and carrying objects, you can only clip one item at a time - using the command will replace whatever is on the keyring with the new object.

To remove the object and leave the keyring empty (apart from the oh-so-valuable key to the executive washroom, of course) use 'UNCLIP'.

This now gives you three options to show off your possessions, so that coupled with the 'CHANGE CLOTHES' command, you can dress and adorn yourself to your exact specification. Unlike changing your clothes, the objects you are wearing/carrying/dangling don't get saved over the reset so you will have to re-adorn yourself each morning. If you don't want to have to make hard choices about what things to show off every day, just put the various commands on an F-key - in FedTerm, the F1 key is automatically run whenever you log on so is perfect for all those things that have to be set daily such as your mood and your objects.

The Idiot's Guide and the commands pages have been updated with all the new object display commands. The in-game help system will catch up soon.
