Parties

A party is a group of players that plays together: they share a chat, they warp to each other, and they have a leader who can manage them. It lives on the proxy, so it works between players who are on different servers.

The commands

Command	Permission	What it does
/party invite <player>	appeltools.command.parties.invite	Invite a player into your party.
/party accept <player>	appeltools.command.parties.accept	Accept a party invitation.
/party leave	appeltools.command.parties.leave	Leave the party.
/party list	appeltools.command.parties.list	The members of your party.
/party promote <player>	appeltools.command.parties.promote	Make a member a moderator.
/party demote <player>	appeltools.command.parties.demote	Take the moderator role away.
/party transfer <player>	appeltools.command.parties.transfer	Hand the party over to a member.
/party remove <player> (alias /party kick)	appeltools.command.parties.remove	Remove a member from the party.
/party warp	appeltools.command.parties.warp	Bring the party to the server you are on.
/party disband	appeltools.command.parties.disband	Disband the party.
/party chat <message>	appeltools.command.parties.chat	Write in the party chat.
/party mute	appeltools.command.parties.mute	Switch the party chat off for the members.

/party also answers to /p.

The roles

Role	What they may do
The leader	Everything. There is one leader, and the party starts with you as its leader.
A moderator	Invite players, remove members, mute the party chat and warp the party.
A member	Chat, leave and accept an invitation.

/party promote makes a member a moderator, /party demote takes it away again, and /party transfer hands the party over to somebody else — after that you are an ordinary member.

/party allinvite lets every member invite other players, not only the leader and the moderators.

The flow

1. /party invite Steve — you get "You invited Steve to the party!".
2. Steve gets a message with a button: clicking it accepts the invitation.
3. Steve runs /party accept you — you are both told that the party is formed.

An invitation that nobody answers expires after five minutes.

The party chat

/party chat <message> writes to the members of your party only.

/pchat <message> (alias /pc) does the same and needs no permission. It works whether or not you have switched to the party channel.

/party mute switches the party chat off for the ordinary members — the leader, the moderators and the staff can still write. It is a switch for the whole party, not for one member.

/party warp

/party warp brings every other member of the party to the server you are on. It needs you to be the leader or a moderator, and it needs you to be actually on a server.

You are not moved yourself — the party comes to you.

The admin commands

The three /party admin commands work on parties that you are not a member of, so they are for the staff.

• /party admin list shows the parties that are open on the proxy.
• /party admin join <party> <player> puts a player into a party without an invitation.
• /party admin disband <party> disbands a party; every member is told about it.

The argument is the id of the party, a long string of letters and digits. The list command shows it.

WARNING

The parties live in the memory of the proxy. A restart of the proxy clears every party — the members have to invite each other again.

TIP

There is no limit on the size of a party.
