There might be more than one, so others are welcome to add more issues found.

Issue Description:
The dot commands listed above are not working:
I triead all possible arguments (.toggle npcsubdue for example) for the base commands, none worked or all produced the same error message

• .hostile -> not recognized
• .toggle -> restricted to DMs
• .roll -> restricted to DMs
• .bio -> not recognized

[Echo]

It's .set hostile [all|none|Name] or .set host [all|none|Name] not .hostile

Did you do just .bio and the bio itself, or did you do .bio [set|append|reset] {text} ?

.roll and .toggle I'm unsure about and will ask Deth.

.toggle emotes

Is indeed broken at the moment. That I can confirm.

@Echo said in Dot command issues:

Then it's wrong in the "Help PvP" journal entry. Works with .set though :)

Tried all arguments possible, none worked

I belive its .biography now

[Valkyrie]

Puffy updated the dot commands just need to read through the full post it is .biography

[Wulfric]

Yes, .biography works. Then the help journal entry needs to be updated.

[Valkyrie]

I hardly trust the journal I just check the forums for dot commands

[Zool]

@Valkyrie It does need updating though

[Wulfric]

There are inconsistencies on the forums too (like .hostile, or it states actually that .bio should work as an abbreviation)
Probably just needs an overhaul or general cleanup both on forums and in the journal.

@Wulfric If it says .bio shuold work, then that is a bug and needs to be reported.

I do have to say... having one big thread is probably not helpful to @DoctorDeth to track stuff down.

I expect it would be much better, if each individual item that does not work had it's own thread so he could look, fix, mark as fixed.

Here, he'd have to look, see which ones already were fixed (or in the pipeline) reply... to kind of mark it, then move on and er...

Yeah, I don't think it'd be great.

Tonight (hopefully) I'll go through them all (that I can use) both according to the forums and the journal entries and create separate threads for separate faulty commands as per your request.

Thank you! (Be sure to tag @DoctorDeth to help him find em)

@Wulfric
I've uploaded a patch for the .toggle commands to the server.
Please test if you have the opportunity.
