The DIRECTI (colloquially: DIRECTION or DIR) verb allows players to receive automated movement suggestions to move to points of interest within a town. The directions for the next step take about 5-7 seconds after moving a room, thus repeatedly sending the DIR (LOCATION) command every room is faster. The directions will also continue until either the character reaches the destination (I knew you could make it!) or DIR STOP is entered.
