Help: Ask
Asking serves a slightly different purpose than the SAY and TELL
commands, and can be used to pose your sentence as a question using ASK
<question>. The ASK command is also used to trigger special responses
from NPCs.
Most NPCs are knowledgeable about a handful of topics, and when you ask
them about a topic or keyword they recognise, they will respond to share
the relevant information. So as not to interrupt general conversation with
others in the realm, NPCs only respond when the ASK command specifically
has been used (they do not reply to simple SAYs nor TELLs). It is
also possible to ask NPCs for the full list of topics they know about by
simply using ASK KEYWORDS.
ASK can be used with or without a target. The syntax simply changes to
ASK <target> <question/keyword>.
Syntax:
ASK (<target>) <question>
ASK (<target>) <keyword>
ASK (<target>) KEYWORDS
