Mules

MULEs (named after a long-extinct Earth animal, and also meaning Multiple Use Labor Entities) are large cargo-hauling robots equipped with rudimentary AI. Generally taking the form of a large bin, they can be commanded by their owner using the 'mule' command, as follows:

 mule follow
   Toggle whether or not the MULE is following you.
 
 mule lock >self|team|faction|team and faction|all<
   Toggle who can access the MULE. By default, MULEs are locked to self.
 
 mule release
   Release your control of the MULE.
 
 claim mule
   Claim an uncontrolled MULE as your own.

All MULEs will respond to the keyword 'mule', and your own mules will also respond to the keyword 'my mule'.
