USE:
- Use form one when there's no possible ambiguity. In the example, there's only one box in the current room.
- Use form two or three when more information is needed to interpret the command — that is, there's more than one possible item by the same name to which the command could be applied. In the example, there's a green box in the room, a rusty box, etc.
- Use form two or three when more information is needed to interpret the command — that is, there's more than one possible item by the same name to which the command could be applied. In the example, there's a green box in the room, a rusty box, etc.
- Use form four when there are many instances of <thing> in the room, and you want to get one of them in particular.
- Use form five when the thing you want to get is inside a container, such as a bag, box, etc. etc. Note that to use this form, you may have to qualify <thing> if more than one exist inside the container: for instance, "get red cake sack", meaning "get the red ake out of the sack".
- Use form six to get every carryable item currently in the room.
Note that items must be in the current room for you to get them; or in a container inside the room or your inventory. You can't Get items from another room; from another character; etc.
When you Get an item, it's added to your Inventory: that is, the stash of items you're carrying around for eventual use. To be able to begin making use of some item, it has to be in your Inventory first.
Not every item is necessarily getable. Also, you may be unable to Get an item due to many possible constraints. As with all commands, the Game Channel will record the outcome of your action.
Get and Take are synonyms for the same action.
The Dungeon parser has limited NLP capability. You can successfully use "get the red cake", for example.
