Slash Command

/whereami  

This command shows one's current server, current zone, and current location coordinates in the System chat channel, including a clickable /thumbtack link.

  • Using the whereami command will output the following information to the chat window:
    • Server: Current server
    • Zone/Mission: Current zone/mission map name
    • Position: Current location coordinates as a clickable /thumbtack link in the format [X Y Z]

Common Uses

Altitis-afflicted players that have forgotten the server on which a particular character was created may find this command preferable to querying other players for the server name.

The mission map name can be useful to provide to developers when submitting bug reports regarding map errors, such as holes in geometry or impassable obstructions.

The position link can be copied and shared with other players, or clicked to place a thumbtack at that location.
