Game Helpfile

------------------
The EXCHANGE command allows you exchange once currency (kronars, lirums or dokoras) for another, but only if you're in a bank room that has a money-changer.

Syntax:
   Format:  EXCHANGE (amount) (cointype) (currency) TO (currency)
       or:  EXCHANGE ALL (currency) TO (currency)

 Examples:  EXCHANGE 24 PLATINUM KRONARS TO DOKORAS
            EXCHANGE ALL LIRUMS TO KRONARS

Notes

  • The minimum exchange is one bronze or ten copper coins. A single transaction cannot exceed 1,000 platinum coins.
  • The money-changer deducts an exchange fee before converting the money. The fee depends on the money-changer and may be reduced or removed by applicable benefits or bonus events; see Currency.
  • Exchanging a currency into itself is refused.
  • You cannot exchange money while hidden or invisible.
