There are times you may encounter obstacles in your path - these can
range from overgrowth in a forest to conjured obstructions, like an
ice wall. Some of these will fade on their own, however others require
further action to be taken to clear the obstacle. The survival skill
teaches many abilities to help overcome these, such as HACKing
away overgrowth or how to SQUEEZE past blockades. Additionally,
LEVITATION is a common method to float over shorter obstacles.
Doors
Doors are an additional blockade you are likely to come across at some
point in your adventures. If a door is unlocked, you may OPEN DOOR
<direction>, or CLOSE DOOR <direction> behind you. When a door is
locked, you will be unable to pass through it without a key. More
information is available in HELP DOORS.
Oceans, Rivers and Other Bodies of Water
It is worth noting that there are many bodies of water in Mystavaria.
If you encounter a river, lake, ocean, or other water source, you will
likely need to SWIM <direction> to cross it. See HELP SWIMMING
for more detailed information.
Climbing
Some terrains and objects can be CLIMBed, such as trees and
ladders. It is recommended to pay close attention to the details of
locations as you explore, as it may not always be obvious that climbing
is an option at a glance, and there are certainly many secrets to be
found by the most intrepid adventurers.
To scope out your surroundings for obstacles, type OBSTACLES.
