Using the Insomnia client
Connect and log in
The client connects automatically when it opens and resumes the same MUD session for up to five minutes after an iPhone background disconnect.
Use the Player login panel for username/password. The client does not store your password.
You can also type /connect to reconnect and log in with the saved player details when disconnected.
Use /disconnect to end the connection deliberately; this clears the tab-only resume key.
Typing commands
Type in the terminal or the command box, then press Enter.
Normal commands go straight to the MUD, e.g. look, inventory, score.
Drag and release the movement joystick toward a lit exit. Its arrow keys also move when the joystick has keyboard focus.
Keyboard shortcuts
Ctrl-M switches between the Insomnia terminal and the explored map.
Drag or swipe the parchment map to scan around; use Centre to return to your current room.
Slash commands and aliases
Anything beginning with / is handled by the client first.
Unknown slash commands strip the slash and send to the MUD: /north sends north.
Create an alias with /alias kk kill $*. Then /kk rat sends kill rat.
Use semicolons for command chains: /alias gm n;s;e;w. Then /gm sends each command in order.
List aliases with /listalias. Delete one with /deletealias kk.
Aliases are saved in this browser, so they survive refreshes but do not follow you to another device.
Reprogram a mobile button with /button <1-6> <label> <command;command;...>.
For example, /button 1 Attack roar;kill all labels button 1 Attack and runs roar, then kill all.
The label is one token (up to 24 UTF-8 bytes, with no whitespace or control characters). A chain contains 1-12 nonempty commands, run in order.
Button settings belong to your character, are saved by the MUD, and are restored automatically whenever that character logs in, including on another device.
Multiple sessions
The first connection is called main.
Open and switch to another character with /connect charactername. The client opens a new MUD connection and sends that character name.
Switch between open characters with /world charactername.
List open worlds with /sessions or /worlds.
Close one with /closeworld charactername.
Output from inactive worlds is buffered. You’ll get a small activity notice, then see the buffered output when you switch back.
Triggers
Triggers watch incoming MUD text and automatically send commands when a regexp matches.
Create one with /trigger rat kill rat.
Use slash regex syntax for alternatives/flags: /trigger /rat|mouse/i kill $*.
Semicolon chains work here too: /trigger /You are hungry/i eat bread;drink water.
Use $* for the full matched text, or $1, $2 for capture groups.
List triggers with /listtrigger. Delete one with /deletetrigger 1.
Be careful: triggers can loop if their own commands produce matching text.
