Commands

Everything Poncho can be told to do in G-Script, with its inputs, what it gives back, what it costs and how it unlocks. Each line of code costs one CPU tick; some commands cost more, and every command warms Poncho up a little.

Made from the game's data on every update, so it matches the live game.

Movement

Command	What it does	Gives back	Cost	Unlocked by
