Mobile
PlayMUD.online Mobile is a terminal-first phone interface.
Open /mobile/ directly. It uses the same authenticated profile, settings scope, gateway connection, triggers, aliases, variables, hotkeys, and Lua source as the desktop client.
Shared Settings
Automation is never duplicated between devices. Changes to triggers, aliases, scripts, or variables on mobile are immediately part of the same server-scoped profile used by desktop.
Only presentation state differs: mobile quick commands, last mobile view, and mobile widget placement are stored separately from desktop layout.
Navigation
- Terminal contains recent status widgets, MUD output, quick commands, history, and the fixed command composer.
- Status shows status-zone widgets and mobile placement controls.
- Scripts provides the shared Lua scripts and syntax-colored editor.
- More contains connection preferences, quick-command settings, and all shared automation editors.
The quick-command row can be shown or hidden under More → Quick Commands. Hiding it returns the row's space to terminal output without deleting the configured commands.
Focus Mode
Tap Hide in the top bar to leave only MUD output and the command input visible. Server controls, status widgets, quick commands, and bottom navigation are hidden, while a Show button remains in the top-right corner.
The choice is remembered only by that browser. Opening an automation editor restores the full mobile controls automatically.
Fullscreen And Installation
Tap the fullscreen-corners icon in the mobile top bar to enter or leave browser fullscreen. The browser requires a direct tap and the phone may keep its system gesture indicator visible.
When installation is available, open More and choose Install. The installed PlayMUD.online app launches directly into the mobile client without normal browser controls.
Lua Client Mode
if client.isMobile then
echo("Running on " .. client.mode)
end
client.mode is mobile under /mobile/ and desktop in the regular client. Use this only for behavior that truly needs a different device presentation.
Connection Resume
Desktop and mobile attach to the same profile-owned gateway session. Switching interfaces does not require logging into the MUD again, and replayed output remains display-only.
