Introduction to the Interface
After you've finished with the Wanderer, you'll finally be able to move around. You will notice that your character is always in the center of the playing screen. After you've finished with the Wanderer, you'll finally be able to move around. You will notice that your character is always in the center of the playing screen. After you've finished with the Wanderer, you'll finally be able to move around. You will notice that your character is always in the center of the playing screen.
Moving
|
To travel, simply move the mouse over the game world display, then right click and hold. The mouse cursor will always point away from your character, who will move in the indicated direction (for example, if you wish to walk up the screen, hold the cursor above your character). You will continue to head in that direction until you come to an obstruction or release the mouse button. The further away the cursor is from the character, the faster the character will move. Double right-clicking will cause your character to move to the exact point where the cursor was. |
Paperdoll
|
The Paperdoll is one of the most important and commonly used menu in the game. You used it to change your character clothing and equipment. You can also access other important menus such as Options and Log Out. The Paperdoll can be opened in four different ways. |

You may notice a small arrow icon near the top of the screen, clicking on that will reveal the Player Quick Menu which can be used to open further useful displays. Left clicking then holding the mouse over the menu (as opposed to the buttons on the menu) allows you to "drag" it around the screen by moving the cursor - release when you've got it where you want it. Most other displays in the game can likewise be dragged (allowing you to customise the interface to your choosing). Usually displays can be closed by right clicking them.
Use the quick menu to open your Paperdoll, then use that to open your Inventory display. With the paperdoll and backpack open, you can equip/unequip your character by dragging items such as a sword or spellbook from one display to the other. To drop an item, drag'n'drop it to the floor near your character, or you may deposit the item in the bank (more on that later). Likewise, many items in the game world can be picked up by dragging them into your pack.
To be continued... Recommend going over basic item manipulation, such as how to move/split the pile of gold in the player's pack, then explaining how to communicate with other players.
