SETMARK

Syntax: setmark add Syntax: setmark delete Syntax: setmark desc Syntax: setmark distance Landmarks are the points on the overland maps that the survey command uses to display its information to players. The data is stored in a simple text file in the directory with the ANSI maps. To add a landmark, go to the coordinates you want it to be at and simply type: setmark add To remove one, go to the coordinates it is at and simply type: setmark delete The description is just a short line of text to describe what the survey command sees. When editing the description, keep it as short as possible, do not capitalize words unless referring to names, and do not add punctuation to the end of the line. To change the description, go to the landmark coordinates and type: setmark desc , Where is the description you want. Distance is the number of spaces the landmark is visible from on the overland. Try not to make the distance too large, or too small. Anything visible for more than 50 or so spaces is most likely too large - unless the landmark is intended to display a large geographical feature such as a mountain.
