Synopsis
quit
Description
This command allows you to exit the game safely and saves your character for later return. You can quit and save from most places within the game - you do not need to be in a SAFE room to do so. Your items will all be saved and will be available upon your return (with some exceptions - see below).
There are some places in the game where you cannot quit in this manner - usually rather dangerous places. If you drop link (disconnect without quitting) in these areas, you can still be attacked and killed in the time it takes you to "time out" of the game (usually about 15 minutes in real time). You will see a message "You cannot quit and save in this area!" when you try to quit in these locations.
Some items cannot be saved when you quit - use of the QUIT command instead of simply disconnecting will give you a list of those particular items that will not be saved. These items can usually be saved by storing them in a locker, or in a home storage chest.
It is a good idea to use the QUIT command instead of simply dropping link, but not required.
