too many commands together in a panic macro. Often times the later commands are predicated on the success of the early commands. For example, a typical panic macro is
"fl;quaff red". However, if the player is summoned to a no-exit room, the flee macro will fail, and the command to drink the potion will be less effective because the
player will still be in combat.
