Books

Books are a method of documenting information or sending private messages between Nations, possibly across long distances. Be warned that books can be stolen, and their contents read, leading to a very interesting dynamic. You can also use them to document events or even become an author, selling your own tales to people. No one can edit your books but you and no one can make copies of your books but you, giving your writing a sense of worth and value and also cutting down on people attempting to pass off someone else's work as their own.

To begin writing a book you must have a single book object in hand, then use the following command: /write  This switches into chat mode, where everything you type will be added to the new book. Chat mode can be toggled with: /write -chat This turns off chat mode and from then on you need to use: /write In order to add content to your book. This makes it useful if you're having a conversation and editing a book at the same time. You can add as much content as you like to your book, and you can add to your book any time you like. To read your book, all you have to do is right click with the book in your hand.

There are several other commands that allow you to edit and fine tune your book further, these are: /write -erase Allows you to erase a line of text from your book. You must enter in the text of the line you want to remove. /write -eraseall Erases all the text in a book. /write -undo Allows you to undo your last writing change. /write -title Allows you to rename a book's title.

You can also place books in bookshelves, by left clicking a shelf with a book in hand, giving bookshelves a use and allowing you to store your books somewhere. They can be read on the bookshelf by right-clicking the bookshelf, they can be removed using shift+left-clicking, and they can be copied by left-clicking a bookshelf with a written book in it (your hands must be empty).

Note: ''Anyone can remove your books, so watch out for potential thieves! And you can only make copies of books you yourself have written, not books you've bought from someone else. This way you don't need to worry about people plagerizing or selling copies of your books without permission. Any copies of your book must be made by you, and only you.''
