Stendhal Groups

Group mode is for combat. You have already noticed that playing as a group of players is fun and effective at killing creatures. As a group you can now

• send messages to the whole group at once
• all take drops from creature corpses killed by group members before someone else can steal it.

To start a group, press the smiley button, and add the name of the player you want to invite

or type the command to invite members:

/group invite someone

Then wait for them to accept the invite. While the invite is valid, but not yet accepted you will be shown as the leader and the only member of your group:

Once the other player has accepted your invite, she will be shown as a member of your group. As the founder of the group you will be the leader and so your name will stay the first and be written in bold. Also you will have the smiley button active for inviting more group members, unlike the player who just joined your group.

All group members, including yourself, have health bars below their names to help you see if someone is in trouble. Those members who are too far for you to see, have grayed out health bars.

To send group messages:

/p message 

, or press the button with the chat bubble.

When playing in groups you may all wish to share access to the corpse, so that the corpse isn't locked to one person. But you can also set it back to single person access. This is called the group lootmode. To change between lootmodes, right click the "Looting" text:

To nominate someone else the group leader, or to kick a member from the group, right click that players name:

and select what you want to do.
