/afk message(optional)

This command causes a gray bubble to appear over the character's head, containing the specified text, or 'AFK' if none is specified. Also sets character's AFK mode. Any tells received while the bubble is above their head will automatically be replied to with whatever is in that bubble


Note: Once a character is set to AFK mode, the player has 20 minutes to resume activity or the character will be automatically logged out. However, auto logout is disabled if the character is in a mission, on a task force, or inside a supergroup base and can remain on those maps indefinitely.


The 'Talking' Bind

/bind key "afk Your message$$startchat"

  • key is the keyboard key used to begin entering text.
  • Most often bound to the ENTER key.
  • The bind can be removed with the /unbind command.
  • Your AFK status is removed as soon as you send your message.

This bind will display a message above your character's head whenever you are typing. If you are busy typing, it will automatically send your AFK message to anyone sending you a private tell. This lets people know that you're currently typing and not intentionally unresponsive.


Example

/AFK I'll be back soon...
