help hail
Syntax: hail <location> Syntax: hail <ship> <message> There are two primary uses for the hail command. The first use is for players who are on the ground in an area served by hovercars, speeders, and other forms of ground transportation. The second use of hail is for private ship to ship communications. Ground Transportation Hail allows you to quickly locate certain types of rooms, such as a hotel. It has several restrictions, such as you must be outside, and not onboard any form of spacecraft/vehicle. Also, to provide a extra realism to war situation, if your clan is at war with the planets governing body, you will not be able to hail. This does not mean you cannot quit on that planet... You just cannot hail. The following locations are examples of some facilities on a planet that can be hailed to - to check your current areas options, type HAIL by itself. SPACEPORT- Takes you to a nearby spaceport, for traveling. WORKSHOP - Takes you to a nearby workshop, for building items. REFINERY - Takes you to a nearby refinery, for making spice. LIBRARY - Takes you to a nearby library for RESEARCH. HOSPITAL - Takes you to a nearby hospital, normally for cybernetics. BANK - Takes you to a nearby bank, for accessing your accounts. HOTEL - Takes you to a nearby hotel, to quit in. LOCKER - Takes you to a nearby locker, to store items. Again, typing HAIL by itself will show you a list of available hail points. Ship Communications: To hail a specific ship, use the HAIL <ship> <message> syntax, replacing <ship> with the name of the ship you wish to speak privately to, and <message> with your message.
