Commands
Commands are instructions you give in the Habbo game to activate a certain functionality. Commands can be selected in various menus, typed in the chat bar, or activated with the use of keyboard shortcuts. Another type of commands are Alt Codes which can be used to enter certain symbols in the chat bar and in other places where you can enter text.
There are commands to make your Habbo to do gestures such as waving and dancing, commands to make your Pets do something, commands to change certain game settings, and more.
Some commands are reserved for Habbo Club members and there are also commands only Moderators can use.
Typed Commands
Commands that can be typed on the chat bar are mostly preceded by a colon.
Some commands have further parameters, meaning additional information must follow the command (such as a number or Habbo name) in order to achieve the desired effect. These will be shown in italics and should be replaced when using them in-game.
If a typo is made or the command is formatted incorrectly, whatever is in the chat box will be said like normal text by the Habbo. The text of successfully entered commands will not be displayed.
Emoticons included in typed sentences will be displayed unchanged, but also change how the Habbo looks.
