.TH Command BDES
|
|
.NA bdes "Manually change your bmap"
|
|
.LV Expert
|
|
.SY "bdes <SECT> <des>"
|
|
A bmap gives you a graphic representation of all or part of your country.
|
|
Bdes allows you to change a sector of your bmap.
|
|
.s1
|
|
Bmap differs from map in that it reflects everything you've learned
|
|
about the world. If, for example, you navigate near a sector and find
|
|
out that it is as sea, it will show up on your bmap as sea, even if it
|
|
doesn't show up on your map.
|
|
.s1
|
|
When you get new information, it will overwrite the designation you put in
|
|
with bdes, UNLESS you put in an 'x' or an 'X'. These two characters, 'x'
|
|
and 'X' are permanent, unless you manually change them with bdes. Once you
|
|
change them back, the sector will be updated normally by nav, march, etc.
|
|
(The normal use for these is to record minefields, so that you can march
|
|
adjacent to the minefield without eliminating the information)
|
|
.s1
|
|
You may use any character with bdes, not just sector designations.
|
|
However, certain characters need to be surrounded with double quotes
|
|
on the command line, like this:
|
|
.EX bdes # \(dq \(dq
|
|
.EX bdes 47,11 \(dq?\(dq
|
|
.s1
|
|
Conditionals do not work with bdes (i.e. bdes # ?des=c C) unless
|
|
you own the sector.
|
|
.s1
|
|
Note that the bdes command only changes your 'working' bmap and not
|
|
your 'true' bmap. If you make a mistake and bdes a bunch of sectors
|
|
where you didn't want them to be, you can always start over by typing
|
|
.EX "bmap revert"
|
|
which will revert your 'working' bmap back to your 'true' bmap.
|
|
.s1
|
|
.SA "bmap, sharebmap, Maps"
