List All Residents Matching Specific Tag Command

Guswut · Dec 22, 2014

Update: It has been confirmed that this is not an existing command. I have created a new thread in the suggestion forum to see if we can get this added.

Thank you!

In short:

Is there a command that allows you to list all residences that match a specific tag?

In long:

I'm curious if I've entirely overlooked this command, or if I should start a feature request in the suggestion forum (I did a find for "tag" and "list" and didn't see anything applicable).

Specifically, I'd like to know the syntax to do a search for all residences that match a specific tag. What this means would be if I type "/res list <TAG>" (as an example of the syntax in this case), I'd get a list of all matching residences.

You can get an approximation of this list by spamming (in the sense of repeating the command over and over and over and over and over again (ugh!) for the sake of using it) the "/v +<TAG>" command a few times until you have a relatively complete listing (randomness willing), but this seems wasteful in player time and server resources.

The "/res tag list" command does appear to work to give a list of tags for the current resident you're on, but it also appears to require a flag of some type that I don't see listed in the wiki. I tried to set the "tag", and "tags" flag on another user on my own resident, but that didn't work.

This also doesn't perform the action we're trying to do, which is to get a list of residents that match a single tag, which is something that we can already (roughly) do (and thus not something that should require a flag, right?). As an aside, it would be awesome to know what flag is required to allow someone to list tags for a resident using the "/res tag list" command, though.

If this isn't something that already exists, please give me an idea as to what the next step would be (closing this thread and I make a new one in the suggestion forum, moving this thread to the suggestion forum, hunting down the forty-two icons to summon the eternal dragon, etc) in this process.

Thank you!

There is no command for this, however, it's a great idea in my opinion.

Ah, understandable indeed. I'll follow up via the suggestion forum to get this into the works. Thank you!

Yes I would definitely like this! Then I could easily and reliably get a list of shops and malls on each server, rather than the current method of guessing I've probably found every mall and shop when a new one doesn't show up after a certain number of tries.

Exactly! I actually often just forgo the "/v +mall" or "/v +shop" randomized hunt and use your webpage's shop list as it's far far easier to get a list of shops that way, knowing that you've already done the hard work of finding the shops (thank you for that).

I've updated the original post with a link to the suggestion thread. Thanks everyone, and hopefully we can get an a-ok on this command!
