Finding People

When you are on a Palace there are two good ways of finding where people are. Roaming the halls is not a good idea, at least if you are in a hurry. The good ways are (1) using the Find User option and (2) using the Goto Room option.

Both of these options are found, reasonably enough, under the Options menu on The Palace. When you choose Find User, you will get a list of everyone who is on the same Palace with you. You can highlight a name and click the Go To button to join them wherever they are. Double-clicking on the name serves the same function. This is a quick and easy way to go see someone specific.

Suppose, however, that you enter a Palace and just want to find someone... anyone. One useful thing to do then is to use the Goto Room option. Choosing this from the Options menu gives you a list of all rooms on the current Palace, along with a count of how many people are in each one. If you lose the class some Wednesday evening, this is a good way to find them. Once again, double-clicking on a room will take you there directly.
