Speak as a myNPC

You type a shortcode at the start of a chat line, and that line goes out under a different name.

In the menus: ESC → Character → myNPC

Set up a persona

The panel holds 3 slots, one to a row.

  1. Type a shortcode into the first field, after the /. Letters and numbers only, up to 10 characters.
  2. Type the name other players will read into Display name.
  3. Leave Language empty to speak basic, or type a language in lower case, such as huttese.
  4. Select SAVE on that row.

CLR empties the row.

Speak as a persona

Open the chat line, type / and the shortcode, a space, then what the persona says.

/whisper , /shout , /ooc and /me all work inside a persona line, straight after the shortcode. Each puts the line on that channel under the persona's name rather than yours.

Speak from a world NPC

Give the persona the same display name as a world NPC. If several match, the nearest one to you speaks.

Chat distance and sound come from that NPC. OOC still comes from you.

Prefer the console?

/mynpc on its own lists all 3 slots. A slot number on its own reads that slot back, and /mynpc clear 1 empties it.

Everything from the display name onwards is taken as one name, so it can hold spaces.
