Access from within Ryzom

Chat commands

There are a wide variety of chat commands available

Filters

This feature of CeB makes it possible to apply a "filter" to what you type. Only certain things can go through the filter and this will have a certain output, depending on the filter applied naturally. Those familiar with Lua should have no problem making use of filters.

At present the alternate, haxor, insult and rot13 filters are not included in the latest stable build of CeB for Windows. To make use of these filters simply download and copy the required files into the "scripts" folder, located in the CeB directory. The archived files for the filters can be downloaded here for .rar and here for .zip.

alternate

This filter changes the input string so that in the output string every odd numbered letter is lowercase and every even numbered letter is uppercase.

Plain:     Once upon a time there lived a ploderos which made strange sounds...
alternate: oNcE UpOn a tImE ThErE LiVeD A PlOdErOs wHiCh mAdE StRaNgE SoUnDs...

calc

This filter allows one to do calculations in CeB as well as use certain special os functions. Basic calculations as well as many more complex ones can be done with this filter applied, it should be noted though that this filter makes heavy use of Lua math library for more complex calculations.

Below is a list of more commonly used functions and operators, for a full list of Lua math functions see the Lua Math Library and for a full list of Lua os functions see the Lua Os Library.

Operators

Trigonometry

Note: The output of these functions are in radians, to convert it to degrees make use of math.deg(<operand>)

Os

Other

code

This filter preserves formatting and whitespace. It is most commonly used to display code in chat.

haxor

This filter replaces the input string with different kinds of alphanumeric characters, giving the output string an appearance similar to that of leetspeak. Currently this filter only converts lowercase characters.

Plain:   abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
haxor:   @BCD3fGH1JKLmn0pqrSTuvWXy2

insult

This filter searches for the substring, "*insult*", in the input string and in *insult*'s place outputs a random French insult. The insult consists of two parts, an adjective and a noun.

Possible adjectives are pauvre, misérable, lamentable, triple, sombre, abominable and effroyable.

Possible nouns are con, abruti, débile, connard, merde, naze, déchet, tête de noeud, bâtard, enxulé, idiot and crétin.

justify

rot13

rot13 is short for rotation 13. This filter encodes all you type with a Caesar Cipher with a left rotation of thirteen:

Plain:   ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
rot13:   NOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJKLM

rot13 only affects letters of the basic Latin alphabet, it does not affect numbers, special characters and other alphabets, such as æ, å, č, é, ê, ħ, ï, µ, ñ, ø, ō, ß, þ, ù, ÿ, etc.
