Revision as of 16:18, 6 August 2011

This is a complete list of all chat commands available in W:A, up to v3.6.29.0.

(A fictional player, John, is introduced here for demonstration purpose. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.)

Used anywhere

/me <message>
Available in: Worms 2 (in-game only), W:A, and WWP

Sends an 'action' message to all players. The message will appear white in the WormNET channel, green in other places.

Example: /me says hello. gives one of the following to everyone:

YourName says hello.(Everyone in lobby or LAN screen)
* YourName says hello. *(Everyone in WormNET channel)
YourName says hello.
(Everyone in game)
/msg <player name> <message>
Available in: Worms 2 (in-game only), W:A, and WWP

Sends a private message (whisper) to a specific player. The message will appear blue in game, yellow in the frontend.

Example: /msg John some message results in:

*John* some message(You in frontend)
<YourName> some message(John in lobby or LAN screen)
[YourName] some message(John in WormNET channel)

or

*John* some message
(You in game)
<YourName> some message
(John in game)
YourName..John: some message
(Message shown in the replay file of both sides)

Shortcuts:

  • In WormNET channel, double-click on the player name to send private messages to that player.[1]
  • In the lobby, right-click on the player name.
  • In the game, use F1–F7 keys when the chat box is open.

Used in WormNET channel

/away <message>
Available in: W:A and WWP

Sets an 'away' message, which is automatically replied to anyone who tried to send private whispers (/msg) to you. If you set /away without specifying the message, your away message will be cleared.

Sending any message or using any other chat command clears the away message instantly.

Example: /away I'm busy.

Your away message has been set to: 'I'm busy.'(You)

Suppose John sends you a whisper (e.g. /msg YourName Hello.), he will get:

[YourName] I'm busy.(John)

from you automatically.

/help
Available in: W:A and WWP

Displays the following:

A list of available commands.

Used in game

/anon <message>
Available in: Worms 2, W:A, and WWP

Sends an anonymous message to all players. The message will appear yellow.

Example: /anon I'm nobody! Who are you? gives the following to everyone:

[I'm nobody! Who are you?]
/afk
Alias: /away ; Available in: W:A (v3.6.19.7 or above)

Away from keyboard. The game will automatically skip your turns while this mode is activated. If enabled during worm placement, the worm will be automatically teleported to a random spot.

While you are Away, your turns will be automatically skipped.

Pressing any key will stop this mode, you should do so when you return.

/ex <player name>
Alias: /ignore (since 3.6.30.0) ; Available in: Worms 2, W:A, and WWP

Excludes a player from sending and receiving public messages to/from him. Excluded players will have their corresponding function keys (F1–F7, not player name) grayed out. If you don't specify a player, all players will be excluded.

/inc <player name>
Alias: /unignore (since 3.6.30.0) ; Available in: Worms 2, W:A, and WWP

Includes a player in public message that has been previously excluded. If you don't specify a player, all players will be included.

/red, /blue, /green, /yellow, /magenta, or /cyan <message>
Available in: W:A (v3.5 Beta 1 or above)

Sends a message to your allied players. The message will appear in the same colour as your allied group (a.k.a. alliance[2]). You cannot send messages to teams you're not allied with using this command.

Whispers of opponents will be shown as **Whisper**, in the colour of that group (alliance).

A player who has two teams in different colours will be able to send whispers to both groups.

Example: /red Hello to the red teams.

<<YourName>> Hello to the red teams.
(Players in the red group will receive this message)
**Whisper**
(Players *not* in the red group will receive this)

Shortcut: Use F9–F11 keys when the chat box is open.

Footnotes

  1. This also works with Worms 2 frontend (server or LAN). However instead of appearing the /msg command, a chat icon will light up to indicate that the private message will be send to that player.
  2. The term 'alliance' is used in the manual, although it means the same as what is called 'group' in the game.
