Getting Started: Moving

To see the room you’re in, type look (see look). You’ll probably see something similar to this (though some MUSHes customize the appearance of rooms):

Example Room<br>
This is an example room. It has a rather boring description.<br>
Contents:<br>
Bob<br>
Sports car<br>
Obvious exits:<br>
Next Room and Out

The first line is the name of the room you’re in, followed by the room’s description, a list of other people (and objects) in the room, and finally a list of exits to other rooms.

To move through one of the exits, you can simply type its name (Out), or you can use the “goto” command (goto Out). See [go] and EXITS.

All players on a MUSH have a “home”, which is usually the room you started in. You can go back to your home by just typing ‘home’, or ‘goto home’. Some MUSHes may also allow you to change your home to somewhere else; you can do that by typing ‘@link me=here’ when you’re in the room.

There may be some objects on the game that you can go inside (wagons or cars, for instance). You can do that by typing ‘enter <object>’, and can leave again by typing ‘leave’. For instance, ‘enter sports car’.

It’s also sometimes possible to teleport from one room to another, using the ‘@teleport’ command. However, most new players on a game probably won’t be able to do that - it’s mentioned here only for completeness.
