Feature Request: Send built-in chat commands using world.chat

MattPlays opened this issue · 2 comments

Sending world.chat "Hello World" has the intended effect of printing Hello World prefixed by the name of the home computer or the bot

Sending world.chat "/clear" outputs Home Computer: /clear

I dunno... looking over the available commands, I don't see any compelling reason you would want a bot or the Home Computer to do any of them. Most of them are either informational, or little chat easter eggs for the player.

What's the use case for this feature?

I've realized that the only "useful" chat command would be /clear, so adding all of the built-in chat commands would probably be useless. The use case is that I would trying to figure out a way to execute functions on other bots from either the home computer or another bot and I devolved into using the world.chat feature but doing this multiple times clogs the ChatBox so I wanted a way to clear it.
