Changes

* '''Quests and Favors''': your Your typical quest log. As of the alpha it currently does not distinguish completed quests. However, a notification appears on the screen along with a distinctive sound whenever you progress on a quest objective.* '''Stuff to Do''' : provides Provides a list of objectives with basic hints. This is a nice feature for players who want to try and discover a lot on their own. Note that many of those objectives are out of the reach of a new player and will require some time to complete!* '''Notepad''' : an An easily missed feature, the notepad lets you jot down notes in -game, this can be useful to remember [[Words of Power]] that you may want to use later, and can be useful to remember key information for several quests. Note that there is NOT a Control-Z (undo) feature, so be careful.

The Inventory window can be resized however you want. The size of the items can be changed via '''Options > Gui GUI and Windows > Inventory Item Icon Size'''.

The '''Sort''' option can be useful because the game currently does not allow to reorganize your backpack contents by drag and drop. The sort option will place all combat gear first (armor and weapons), which makes it easier to switch between weapons and armor as you switch between skills. Sometimes it can be useful also to drop items on the ground, then quickly pick them up, as this will move them to the end of the inventory. It is also possible to exchange the position of items, by dragging one item onto another.

The items in your inventory with the '''red borderE''' are the ones that you have currently equipedequipped, items with red borders are quest items.

To '''drop an item''' click and drag the item towards onto the bottom of panel below that appears below the inventory. Be aware that any items dropped in this way can be picked up by players nearby!

Press M or use the button on the sidebar to open the map. The Map map of the area you are in can be resized. Currently, not all locations have maps.

You can place dots markers on the map, for places of interest you may want to remember. (This this can also be useful for planning a route among multiple Mining mining surveys). The Dots markers can be renamed or removed by clicking on them.

After inviting someone to a group (party) with you (and them accepting), or after inviting a group-invitation yourself, you can open the Social window, to see who is grouped with you. This also allows you to see their armor and health. (Some some classes have abilities that allow them to heal other players).

Slash commands are typed in the console. These always start with a forward slash, (EG. "/like /thiswiki").

To link items in chat, simply drag and drop one or more items to the chat windowwhile you have a message typed.

To enable ghost chat simply click the little red cross. That is , click the close button instead of using the chat toggle key. From there on, the chat will only appear when someone talks, and will disappear again after a few seconds. In addition , the chat appears somewhat transparent. It reduces clutter and adds a little to immersion. You can configure how long the ghost-chat should last in Options > GUI and Windows, along with the transparency level.

You can create and join chat rooms. Users automatically start in the "Trade" and "Help" channels. You can :
