Nireath: Moved old commands to a separate section

There are many different commands which can be used within PlaneShift. Some commands help roleplaying, there are called "Roleplay Commands", there are others that are only useful for the Player (Player Commands), and some are useful for the character (Character Commands).

If you find the 'syntax' column difficult to understand, see the [[#Syntax Guide|Syntax Guide]] below.

==Syntax Guide==
The following tables use a specific typographical convention. '''This typographical convention is not used in game.''' It is used here to clarify syntax.

A word preceded with a slash (i.e. "/example") is a '''command'''.

Any word after a '''command''' written in plain text (i.e. "example") is a set ''required'' '''parameter.'''

Any word after a '''command''' written in italics (i.e. "''example''") is a variable ''required'' '''parameter'''. You may use any word or phrase you like here.

Any word after a '''command''' written between two curly brackets (i.e. "{example}" or "{''example''}") is an ''optional'' '''parameter'''. If it is also italicised, the '''parameter''' is ''variable''.

Any words separated with a 'pipe' (<nowiki>|</nowiki>) and surrounded by square brackets (ie. "[apple | pear | peach]") are choices. Only one of them may be chosen. For instance, "/example apple" is valid, whilst "/example apple peach" is not. Once again, if it is italicised the '''parameter''' is variable.

Nireath: Update saved settings files

=== Logs and Configs ===
[[PSUnreal Client logs and configs]]

[[PSUnreal Command Line Options]]

=== Settings ===
The game saves all options present in the Settings panel into savegame files located in your Saved/SaveGames directory (see above for logs and configs)

Here you can find the following files

* audio.sav : stores the audio volumes
* compendium.sav : stores all the entries added to your compendium
* EnhancedInputUserSettings.sav : stores the controls set by user, as they are defined under Settings "Controls"
* interface.sav : all options you see under Settings "interface", including mouse options, font size, menu sizes, ...
* macros.sav : stores the content of the shortcutbar including all the commands
* uiLayout.sav : stores the position and size of all windows

=== Keys and controls ===
[[PSUnreal Keyboard and mouse layout|Keyboard and mouse layout]]

=== Troubleshooting on Linux ===

[[Running Windows package on Linux]]

[[Crash fix on Linux]]

=== Troubleshooting on Mac ===

Please remember to extract the PlaneShift tar file under /Applications. You need to have the PSLauncher and PSUnrealClient in the Applications folder.

[[PSUnreal Mac authorize app]]

We had an issue Mac with UE 5.4.3 was freezing after login showing the sky and nothing else, no character selection, no UI. We deleted /Users/<usename>/Library/Application Support/Epic/PSUnreal/Saved/PSUnreal_SF_METAL_SM5.upipelinecache and it worked. That cache was probably made with previous version of unreal 5.1.1
