USE:
- Use form one to leave the room you're currently in, and enter one directly adjacent.
- Use form two to save unnecessary typing.
- Use form three to save even more unnecessary typing.
- Use form four as an alternative to form one.
Note that there are many conditions which may prevent you from moving as you desire. For instance, there could be no room in this direction; or there could be a closed door in the way. More ominously, you may be too weak to move; or you could be paralyzed; or you could be blinded and unable to find the exit. The Game channel will inform you of the outcome of your command.
Moving requires energy. If you do move successfully, you'll probably see your supply of available energy become diminished by some quantity. How much depends on where you're moving to; how much weight you're carrying; and other factors. Climbing a mountain carrying 200 pounds will require more energy than walking move a city street empty handed.
Note you don't have to type the word "go". You can if you want to, but <direction> by itself is shorter. So, instead of typing "go west" you can just type "west"; or even just "w" if you like.
