Hub Prefs

This page documents every boolean hub preference. Hub preferences are managed by Game Masters through the toggle commands noted next to each entry (or directly in config/areas.yaml).

Game Masters and above

arup_enabled

(default: True)

Whether the ARea UPdate system is enabled for this hub, i.e. the extra information displayed in the A/M area list and the ability to set a /status. - Toggled with /arup_enable and /arup_disable.

autokick_to_latest_area

(default: False)

If True, switching to a character instantly kicks the player to that character's latest occupied area. If False, no such kick happens. - Toggled with /toggle_autokick.

(default: True)

If True, normal players may use /getareas in this hub. If False, it is restricted to GMs and above. - Toggled with /toggle_getareas.
