Anarchy Online Tips

These are more like tips to help you get in the flow of the game than cheats or strategies. 

Communication:

say allows you to speak to the vicinity
tell "character name" allows you to whisper to someone
shout allows you to be heard by all players nearby
me "action" can be used to express actions, like "
me laughs out loud" 

Easy targeting:

Self: F1
Cycle nearest enemy targets: Tab
Cycle nearest friendly targets: Ctrl+Tab
Teammates: F2-F6
Once you've targeted yourself or someone else, you can press 
T for more information. 

Easy follow:

Once you've selected an enemy or player that you'd like to 
approach, type: 

follow 

You might also find it useful to create a macro icon for this command, 
as follows, and place it in your shortcut bar. 

macro fo /follow 

Self-termination:

If you experience a bug that doesn't allow you to proceed or escape from 
a zone, then you can kill your character by typing the following: 

terminate 

GM petition:

If you require GM assistance, you can petition for help as follows: 

petition X 
A standard petition command might look like the following: 

petition Help me, I'm stuck in Omni-1, and my character's left arm has 
disappeared! I don't know where I dropped it, or that I could drop it.  

Show frame rate   - Ctrl+Alt+F 
Submit bug report - Ctrl+Alt+Shift+F9 

Take screenshots:

To take a screenshot, press F12. They're saved to the Screenshots folder 
located in the Funcom/Anarchy Online directory. 

Create macros:

To create a macro for a commonly used command like /pet attack, 
type the following: 

Macro pa /pet attack:

This will create a small, selectable icon that can be put into 
your shortcut bar for easy use of the pet attack command. 

Completing "live-with" missions:

To complete this type of mission, once you've found the objective NPC, simply 
target him or her, and stay within the vicinity for a short period of time. 
Registering the mission as complete can take as little as 10 seconds, and 
has on some occasions taken us up to 4 minutes. 

Creating implants:

Select the nanocluster you want to insert into the implant by left clicking 
it, then hold it over the implant and shift-right click to combine the two. 
You can then go to a surgery clinic to install the implant, if you meet the 
requirements. Nano-programming skill is required for creating implants. 

Team looting:

As team leader, you can select how loot is divvied up by the team. The most 
common choice is alpha, where the spoils can be picked up by characters in 
alphanumeric order. To enable this, type: 

team loot alpha 
  
Other choices include "/team loot leader" and "/team loot FFA"
