The BodypartGroup command is used to edit bodypart group describers, which are special rules that tell the engine how to succinctly describe groups of bodyparts, such as in inventory descriptions.

For example, one might instruct the engine to show something as worn on the "body" rather than saying that it covers the shoulders, back, chest, belly, waist etc.

There are two kinds of bodypart group describers; direct and shape. Direct describers list the specific bodyparts that must be included (right hand, right wrist, etc), whereas shapes can handle multiple bodyparts of the same type (a hand, a wrist, etc.)

You can use the following syntax with this command:

bpg list - lists all the bodypart group describers
bpg show <which> - shows a bodypart group describer
bpg edit <which> - starts editing a bodypart group describer
bpg edit - an alias for show when editing a group describer
bpg close - stops editing a bodypart group describer
bpg new direct|shape <body> <name> - creates a new bodypart group describer
bpg set desc <name> - sets what the group is described as
bpg set comment <comment> - sets a brief description for builders about what it does

The following commands are specific to direct group describers:

bpg set part <which> - toggles the inclusion of a part
bpg set part <which> mandatory - sets a part to be a mandatory part
bpg set part <which> optional - sets a part to be an optional part

The following commands are specific to shape group describers:

bpg set shape <which> <min> <max> - sets a shape to be included
bpg set shape <which> remove - removes a shape
