This file is a must read for new MUD owners. This is ResortMUD 4.0 for Linux/Unix Servers made by staff of both the UCMM and the UMRG Networks. First off, set your rmstart file to your correct base directory, port and email address. Second, set the Makefile to the setting best for your server. Third, compile and then make a copy of the source and edit it elsewhere by removing all .c, .h and other files except any ending with .o, rmexe or core. Once you have done that, place those files into the src/crashsafe directory. The files will activate once you activate the crashguard on the MUD using the cset command and saving. When and if the MUD crashes, the .o files in src/crashsafe will take operational control till repairs are made in the src directory. To return to your original .o files, fix the error in src, reboot or copyover and they will return. Remember to update the .o files in the src/crashsafe every so often so that major features are not affected. Finally, to start up the MUD once the rmstart file is set, type ./rmstart & in the src directory. If you want to activate the debugger, uncomment it in the Makefile and set the directories, then go into mud.h and uncomment the dmalloc line. In immscore.c exist code for incognito and ghost and they are disfunctional. Entries for can_see and bool are missing, so you will not become invisable to anyone till these are fixed. Have an advanced coder add them where they shall go, refer to wizinvis for help. Counciltalk is flawed. This is due to the installation of the Council2 option to go along with the Council option. This allows you to be member to 2 councils, mortals should not be members of 2 councils, it may cause bugs. IMC is installed, to activate goto home/imc/ and copy config.bak and rename it config so IMC will initialize. Webserver that is contained can be shut off or on in the cset module. This code used SMAUG1.4, 1.4a, 1.4a2 and RM3.0 area files. Have fun! There are alot of features to explore.
