Portable tents, in AL, form a semi-permanent but not especially secure shelter for your player character. You can set them up to store items, escape from inclement weather, or do essentially anything you could with a tent on Earth. Items kept in a portable tent will persist through reboots and wilderness cleanup, but are not immune to being picked up by your fellow players.
Tents tend to be rather bulky, and do not come with tent poles. You will have to buy or make tent poles yourself; each type of tent requires a varying number of poles in the area in order to be pitched. You cannot save or quit in a portable tent. If you should attempt to do so, you will be saved outside of it. The commands associated with portable tents are as follows:
SYNTAX:
pitch <folded tent>
Pitches or sets up a folded tent. To pitch a tent, it must be on the ground; if there are not enough tent poles in the area, or if the area is too small, this command will fail.
strike <pitched tent>
Strikes or takes down a pitched tent.
