Riven scripts make use of "external commands" to perform complex actions. External commands are code blocks living outside Mohawk files (hence "external"); probably they are part of the engine executable itself. Many complex devices in the game are implemented with external commands (for example the domes and the fire marbles puzzle); this is bad news because no reverse-engineering can be done on them easily. An alternative engine would have to implement custom code for those devices.
This is the first step in understanding the role of each external command. This list has been put together by looking into NAME 3 resources, which store external command names used within each stack. Arguments have been found or guessed by reading scripts.
Each command is reported in a way similar to C functions: command_name(argument1, argument2...). Names without trailing '()' have not yet been investigated.
