Shorts:
Description: The reset room or area command will revive any wandered or dead mobs whose location is the same as the invokers. Any removed items which are resettable will also return. Any items or mobs which do not belong in the location will be returned to their proper homes.

The reset rejuv room or area command will revive any dead mobs or resettable items at the location of the invoker. Mobs that have wandered away will not be returned. No other mobs or items in the room will be affected.

The reset itemstats and reset mobstats commands serve a similar purpose. Both will modify the vital statistics of all the mobs or items in the room, area, world, or catalog specified. The statistics will be "normalizations" of vital combat scores based on the mob or items level, and the game engine's definition of nominal ratings for that level. They will allow a "preview" of changes to be made by specifying the "nosave" parameter on the command line, which prevents permanent changes. Area names may also be specified on the command line to cause the command to skip certain areas (for use with WORLD parameter only).

Reset relevel is a dangerous but potentially time saving command to change the levels of all mobs and items in the same area as the user from falling within its current range of levels to a new range. See help (areaname) to see the existing minimum and maximum levels of the area.

The reset password command will let you generate a random password for the given player or account and email it to their address on file, or change it to a neutral word when no email address is on file.

You can also reload your ini settings, or the lists.ini file using reset inifile.

Notes

  • Before doing a RESET RELEVEL command:
    • Do a DEVIATIONS MOBS AREA to make sure the spread of your mobs' levels is correct. If you have a level 100 mob, and all other mobs are level 1-10, and you do a RESET RELEVEL 5-15, all of the low level mobs will be 5, and the level 100 mob will become 15. To avoid this, modify your high level mob's level first, then do an UNLOAD RESOURCE STATS_(AREANAME) first to make sure that you relevel based on the most current information in the area.
  • A useful tool for newly imported areas, RESET AREARACEMAT allows you to go through each all the mobs and items and shows you each mob and item of a given name, along with the race and material it currently has. It then prompts you and lets you either hit ENTER to keep the existing, or a new value to change it. It automatically re-applies decisions you made to other mobs/items of the same name.
