BUTCHER

Travelling in the wilderness can sometimes result in the poor explorer running out of food. The solution to this problem just might be the butcher command. If you have killed an animal that you think should be able to give you some food, hides or whatever, type butcher corpse, and you will soon find out if you were able to produce anything useful.

To pick the right corpse, you can also butcher pig, butcher deer-corpse, or similar.

Of course, you need to have some kind of butchering tool like a knife (wielded or worn on a belt) to be able to exploit the dead corpse in front of you.

A corpse which has already been butchered (or scalped) is readily identifiable.

Orcs and Trolls are not famous for their regard for the dead, so they can use the butcher command to produce "food" from the corpses of dead players…

Examples:

  > butcher corpse
  > camp
  > cook raw
