Help Engage

From FiranMUX

Command: engage

Syntax: engage <opponent>

engage @<team>

The command tells the combat system that you want to engage someone without actually hitting them. It is a Goal command (see 'help combat goals').

Generally speaking, you rarely need to use this command. It is useful when you have some specific scene in mind where you want to lock someone down (perhaps to stop an archer from firing a bow) without actually hitting them. If your intent is to hit them, though, just use attack or kill.

As long as your goal is engagement, the game will re-engage you to your opponent, if they try to get away or whatever. All of this happens at timer-cycle speeds, of course.
