Getting around
| Type this | What it does |
|---|---|
/places | Every place in the Klamath Basin: 210 of them in 13 areas. The Places tab in your inventory has the same list. |
/way chiloquin | Puts a marker on your screen that points the way. /way off removes it. |
/landmarks | The places nearest to you. |
/goto lava beds | Jumps you to a place, on accounts that are allowed to. Part of the name is enough; a close name gives a numbered list, then /goto 2. |
Places to try: the Klamath Living building in Klamath Falls, where everyone starts; Moore Park and Pelican Marina; Rocky Point and Agency Lake on Upper Klamath Lake; Kimball State Park on the Wood River; Crater Lake and Wizard Island; Lava Beds (go inside the caves: Skull Cave has ice).
Things to do
Basin Passport
Visit landmarks, headwaters and towns to collect stamps and badges. Type /passport.
Quests and coins
Three Daily Basin quests every day, daily chests and a weekly secret. Type /rewards, /clue and /leaderboard. Basin coins are for fun: they buy Wardrobe extras and have no cash value.
Fishing and wildlife
Find fish, deer, elk, pelicans, eagles, beavers and otters, most at the headwaters, marshes and refuges. /catches shows your fishing catches.
Boats
Take a rowboat, a motorboat or the Super Duck plane. /boats shows where; /getoff hops out.
Your character
Press I and open the Wardrobe, or type /wardrobe: pick one of 8 characters or build your own look. Your look is saved.
/nametag Your Name sets the name tag over your head. Keep it friendly, and never use your real full name or contact details.
Today's news
/news plays today's Oregon Living news, or walk up to the news board in Klamath Falls and press Play.
The rules (gentle ones)
- Be kind. Type
/rulesto read the Rules of the Basin. - Punching is never against the rules, and nobody can get hurt.
- Damaging someone else's build: the first time is a warning, then 1 minute in jail, then 2 minutes, never more.
- The jail clock keeps running even if you log off, and a big countdown shows on screen.
- A friend can vouch to get you out early at the bail lever outside the cell.
- If you don't move for 15 minutes you're logged out (with a warning at 13). Just log back in.
- Players under 13 play in kid mode with chat off. Private messages are friends-only, and a moderator bot holds links and personal details.
