.TH Command LOST
|
|
.NA lost "Report lost items"
|
|
.LV Basic
|
|
.SY "lost"
|
|
The lost command displays all lost items currently in the
|
|
database for your country.
|
|
.s1
|
|
All lost items are timestamped at the time they were lost. If
|
|
you had a previously lost item in the database, and then build a
|
|
new item of the same type with the same ID, or regain an item of the
|
|
same type with the same
|
|
ID, it is removed from the database. This is done because the new item
|
|
will now show up in the other dump commands, and is no longer lost.
|
|
.s1
|
|
Lost items are kept in the database for 48 hours (default) but may
|
|
be kept longer at the deity's discretion. Also, issuing the lost
|
|
command does not remove items from the database. That is where the
|
|
timestamp functionality becomes important.
|
|
.s1
|
|
While the lost command does not take any arguments, it does
|
|
take the standard syntax for selecting information.
|
|
(see \*Qinfo Selector\*U).
|
|
.s1
|
|
A typical usage might be:
|
|
.EX lost ?timestamp>854954677
|
|
which would list data for all lost items timestamped after
|
|
854954677. (Timestamps are kept in system seconds.)
|
|

|
|
A lost command lists all the lost items headed by:

|
|
The first line is the date. The second line is the
|
|
"DUMP LOST ITEMS <timestamp>" where the <timestamp> field is the current
|
|
timestamp. The third line is the columns which are output.
|
|
.s1
|
|
These columns represent:
|
|
.s1
|
|
.in \w'timestamp\0\0'u
|
|
.L type
|
|
The type of lost item. They are as follows:
|
|
0 - Sector
|
|
1 - Ship
|
|
2 - Plane
|
|
3 - Land unit
|
|
4 - Nuclear stockpile
|
|
.L id
|
|
The # of the ship, plane, land unit or nuke. All of these items
|
|
are identified by ID. Sectors are identified by x and y.
|
|
.L x
|
|
The x coordinate of the lost item when it was lost.
|
|
.L y
|
|
The y coordinate of the lost item when it was lost.
