Writing and Leaving Notes

Post by Feargys » Sun Mar 26, 2023 6:11 pm

I'm really struggling to write notes that I can leave on message boards. I can input the words I want to write in the chat bar, but I'm not sure which command saves the writing. And how do I then append the note to a notice board?

I have searched the wiki but I can't find anything there about writing.

Thanks

You need to use the Writing Paper item. This opens a conversation that lets you name the note, write your message (such as using the chatbox to add lines or copy it from a map pin), sign it (name, pseudonym, or anonymous) and make the note itself. Then you use the note's activate on the message board to add it to the board.

Thanks for this. I can get all the way to the "sign it" stage, but after that, no matter what I do, I'm left with a blank piece of paper. If I try to use the radial menu on the note and click on the notice board, nothing happens.

I'm pretty much a technophobe, and I'm missing out on quite a lot that Arelith offers because I struggle with new mechanics.

Sorry to be a pain.

You absolute beauty, you!

Thank you so much!

This might be worth stickying for other dinosaurs like me.
