It's also usually a good idea to set the HIDDEN flag for any special exit so that it looks nicer to those with autoexits on. The AUTO flag makes it possible to go in a direction by simply typing the keyword for that exit: &Credit exit ? 3001 &c- Create a 'somewhere' exit to 3001 &Credit exflags ? auto hidden &c- Set the proper flags &Credit exname ? swim &c- Set the keyword "swim" ... here, if a player types 'swim' in the room they will move to room 3001 See also: &WHELP RSTAT, EXFLAGS, REDIT&D ~ -1 1242868806 ADVENTURE~ &cIn our efforts to give credit to everyone who deserves it, we almost forgot to give credit to one of the "grandfathers" of computer adventure Also credit to Ken Wellsch for porting the original Fortran-77 version to UNIX-C (over a period of about 3 years) (c)1984. games...

This is the official posting for the Alliance Clan. For those who are curious, or wish to join, this should assist you in determining whether you should be part of this glorious group, or whether you might be more of the independent, or neutral type. &wI. The Alliance History:&c The clan was formed long ago in response to the dreaded armies of Tanzean'al that waged war upon the entire land. These dark forces sought to slay or enslave all peoples and races who would dare stand against their dark tyranny and oppression. The free races and peoples, a bulk of whom were elves, humans, and dwarves, put aside any difference, and joined into a great force to oppose the forces of darkness. Even after the war was ended, and Tanzaen'al was defeated, the forces of both good and evil remained, as each side decided to stay united, after seeing what strength they had when banding together. The dark forces, comprised largely of Drow, Orcs, and Goblins, with some other nefarious creatures thrown in, were known as the Throng, while the goodly forces became known as the Alliance. For years, fighting continued between these two groups, and the hatred burned bright. The Alliance would attack the Throng, or the Throng would attack the Alliance. There were times of Treaties and peace, but these would never last long, and war would, inevitably, break out. The Alliance is always vigilant, and ready for the next attack of the dread Throng. &wII. The Clan Purpose:&c The purpose of the Alliance is to protect and defend the free cities and peoples from attacks from the Throng, as well as Throng influence. In fact, this clan will fight any threat to the innocent people of the land. All members of the clan will protect, and fight alongside other Alliance members. The Alliance also will assist those in need, and give aid to any who require it, whether this is from disease, natural disaster, or war. Perhaps, most important, the Alliance will watch for any trouble from the Throng, so vigilance, surveillance, and spying are functions of the clan. It is best to know, and be prepared for any trouble. &wIII. Role Play in the Alliance:&c Alliance role play can be extremely varied. Some will play aggressive characters who view the best way to deal with the Throng is in an aggressive manner, taking the fight to them, and smiting them where they live. Others will play somewhat more pacifistic types who will counsel for peace, and will urge non-aggression, and the avoidance of conflict. No matter what the views portrayed by the RP of the character is, they are expected to act with honor, and with absolute loyalty to the clan, and to the decisions made by leadership. All voices and opinions will be heard. Role play is highly encouraged within the clan. &wThe Code of Honor and Conduct: &cAll Alliance members are to respect their clan-mates, and to never raise a weapon against another Alliance member. They are expected to help in whatever way they can in times of war, and when the clan is raided. This could be anything from potion making to healing to actual fighting. No Alliance member shall ever betray the confidence of private clan matters or strategies to outsiders, or, needless to say, to the Throng. No Alliance member should disrespect the Chieftain or War Master, or go counter to their orders, though speaking up if they disagree is fine, as long as it is done in a tone of respect. Treat your clan-mate as you would be treated, and all will be well. &wThe Chieftain:&c He is leader of the clan, and he sets the general tone of dealing with the Throng and all outsiders. An aggressive Chieftain who believes in taking the fight to the enemy will be influence the clan that way, while a pacifist leader who avoids conflict will influence the clan that direction. The Chieftain's word is final on most matters, save for matters of war where he or she will default to the authority of the War Master.

Using normal instruments they are able to coax forth a tune that will have even Tanzean'al himself dancing for joy. Instead of the &CCAST&c command, Bards use &CPLAY&c. They will need the right type of instrument to play the song. The song will stay in effect until the music stops playing - either the bard must rest, or he fails to find the right note (or some other concentration failure). Because of this, the bard is a welcome ally to any group - his songs can't run out in the middle of a tough battle, and he has some unique numbers that greatly enhance his members fighting abilities. He also has some decent solo abilities, but was designed generally with a captivated audience in mind. Bards are physically average, yet weak in magic. A Bard focuses primarily on &WDEXTERITY&c, and to a lesser extent, on &WCONSTITUTION&c. Bards come from the following races - &WHUMAN, ELF, HALFLING, PIXIE, GNOME&c.

However, you too will be dazed as it's just impossible to bash into something without feeling something yourself. While dazed, you can't heal, flee or perform other extraneous combat actions (i.e. you will be able to dodge/parry/attack but nothing else). These same consequences are inflicted upon your opponent should he be another player. Should you be fighting a mobile then bash will merely inflict damage. &WNote: Bash has a drastically reduced chance of hitting if the basher is not one of the primary combatants (i.e. is not tanking).&D ~ 104 1449455270 BAT FORM~ &cSyntax: bat Using the complexities of ancient blood magic, the vampire attempts to bond their physical form to that of a giant bat.

Many mobs are able to bite you during battle (creatures rather than humanoids). Vampires: Vampires can bite their victim, only after grabbing them and rendering them powerless. Many tried to bite them out of nowhere and found it is not a good method, therefore now vampires are taught not to use this skill to commence a fight, but rather to bite when the victim has succumbed to the vampire's will. &W'With both sword and dagger at his belt, the vampire was literally armed to the teeth.' -- "The Monster Compendium", by the Royal Magician Kolak&D ~ -1 1252017271 BLACK~ &cThe Black Dragons are generally chaotic evil.

Climates are no longer what each area has, but now are a flag applied to the weather cells across the weather "map". The following are available: rainforest, savanna, desert, steppe, chapparal, grasslands, deciduous_forest, taiga, tundra, alpine, and arctic. Now, a brief explanation will follow for each, but these flags cause the system to force changes into cells with each update, to keep weather consistant with what is supposed to be within that cell. Rain Forest - This climate will produce a lot of rain and high heats, not quite as hot as a desert, but hot none the less. An earth example would be the Amazon region in South America. Savanna - This is a climate that produces a two season year, one being wet, the other being dry. And the temperature varies between but maintaining equatorial area temperatures for earth. An example would be the Serengeti of Africa. Desert - Hot, Dry, Arid. This climate is home to cacti, camels, and other such Desert creatures and plants. A prime example is the Sahara Desert. Steppe - Characterized by grasslands, this is a semiarid climate. It can be found normally between the desert climate and more humid climates. An example of this climate would be the Mongolian Steppes in Eurasia. Chapparal - This is another semiarid climate, with long dry summers and shorter wet winters. The primary example of this is the Mediterranean Coast, or a bit of Southern California. See: CLIMATE2 See Also: SETWEATHER SHOWWEATHER WEATHER ~ 101 1202554075 CLIMATE2~ Grasslands - These are large climates of grassy plains and varying weather. The rainfall in these climates is enough to support the growth of grass, but not much else. An example would be the Great Plains of the Central United States. Deciduous Forest - This is a "perfect" climate. This is one of the few climates that really experiences all four seasons, with changes in each. It is normally characterized by the lush forests that grow within it, and the varied plant and wildlife that live within. The Eastern United States all falls under this climate. Taiga - The Taiga is also know as the Boreal Forest Climate, because it is mostly only needleleafed trees that grow within this ravaging climate. The wind in this type of climate is very unforgiving, and trees are known to only grow in clumps because of this. The best example of this climate would be the interior of Alaska, or North-Central Canada. Tundra - The tundra climate is found along arctic coastal areas. The winter season is long and severe, and a short, mild summer exists but it barely noticeable. The best example of the tundra would be Coastal Alaska, or Iceland. Alpine - These are the mountain climates found mostly (on Earth) in Eurasia. The Himalayan Mountains are the best example. These climates produce colder temperatures than the climates around them, merely because of altitude difference. Arctic - Cold. Always Frozen. Almost the exact opposite of a desert. Could technically be considered a desert by the definition of the word. These climates produce below freezing temperatures almost year round. Antarctica would be the best example of an Arctic climate.

Politely discuss the matter with the Staff member, do not argue, if they don't agree with you. Take the matter to their council head, if they are a council head take it to the Game Admin. Once you tell that council head, or Game Admin don't worry about it, you have done your part. While you may disagree with how a fellow STAFF member is handling something, back them publicly towards the players. This shows a united front, and keeps any disagreements on how things are handled from the players. &WScenario # 2&C I am Staff, and a player is talking about something I don't agree with, but it is not offensive. If you wish to express your opinion on it, do so, but don't go on, and on arguing with players about this and that. We don't want to put ourselves in positions where we appear to have something against a particular player or group of players. Just a ooc Can't say I agree with that. Is fine, and let the matter drop don't get drawn into arguments. &WScenario # 3&C As Staff we must separate our alts from our Staff alt. We don't let players know we have a Staff alt, and we don't give them that impression. Don't get too wrapped up in your alts, that you let something that happens to them affect how you deal with any other players. Let's face we are Staff we have advantages of game knowledge that other players don't. We can take lumps now and then, and still thrive. - Not saying other players shouldn't have to follow rules in dealing with our alts, but we need to do the punishment and move on. No snide comments on public channels, tells, etc. We are supposed to be professionals and above that type of behavior. - Also, even though we may think players don.t know our alts, 9/10 chances are they do know, and will know that it is you that is dealing with them in a non-professional manner and will tell other players/staff. &c See also help &WCOC2 ~ 101 1238698236 COC2~ &WScenario # 4&C A player is continuously whining, crying on public channels and ruining the fun for everyone in the game. Send them a tell informing them that whining is not permitted on public channels, because it affects everyone.s game enjoyment. If they continue after your tell, silence them trans them to your office and tell them they can post on the forums, or send the Game Admin an email about their issue, but they cannot continue whining on public channels. If they agree to that in the office, remove the silence, if not keep them silent and comment their pfile. Send me an email so I know what happened. 90% of disciplinary issues on 6 Dragons stems from this getting out of hand. Yah I made that figure up, but it just seems to be that way. &WScenario # 5&C Players that break rules. Players are extremely important to our game, and should not be dealt with excessively harsh. Let's face it, players are not easy to come by for the mud. now adays. When a player breaks a rule, depending on the severity of it, just a verbal counseling is all that is necessary the first time. Put a comment on the player that you counseled them about the situation. So if they do it again, then any other Staff will know harsher methods maybe needed whether it be a slay, or whatever. Anything harsher than slay/purging of corpse, defer to Game Admin. Give reasons you believe something harsher should happen. &WScenario # 6&C Staff are not immortals, or deities, we are here to assist players with game enjoyment. That is what you should tell players on all regular channels however, if you wish to roleplay on icc channel I consider that channel fantasy. As long as you are not doing mudsex, or getting disgustingly gross to other players. &WScenario # 7&C I have designated the mud. PG-13 for rating, but with that said, we want to attract and keep players. There is a swear channel, but disgusting talk about doing things to babies and whatnot that is offensive to others should not be allowed. Send the player a tell that kind of talk is not permitted, then if they continue silence them and talk to them in the office. If they agree to no longer talk about it, remove the silence but put a comment on them about the behavior. ~ 1 1203599530 CODE CODER~ . &CSo you want to code for &r6 Dragons&D?

When this happens the objects inside a corpse will decay with it. Player corpses last roughly 30 minutes of real time.

There are also pseudo death traps that may appear to be a dt, but leave a corpse or transfer a corpse to another area. This is not a true dt. It is often advisable to look before one leaps and heed room descriptions. DT's do not warrant a reimbursement, they are a part of the game.

Dexterity is also very important for quaffing potions in combat. High dex will allow you to quaff without dropping many potions during the heat of battle, while a poor dexterity will cause you to accidentally drop many of the valuable vials.

It does NOT show up in ch->next_in_room loops, so the bug is basically the invisible mob is not getting linked into the room mobs properly. Why this is so, I have no idea. But will keep trying to find out. A bit more on the bug. Happens during copyover. To do with linking players/mobs in a room together. Look into that code. ie before copyover, players/mobs in room are linked one after the other. After copyover, one player/mob has come out of the link. So I would say at this stage i'm looking for somewhere in copyover code where players aren't properly linked/unlinked. When I find it i'll just put in char_to_room or char_from_room (which autolinks) and should be sweet to go. Not sure whether this will always work, but force the mob to leave the room, purge him, then reset area worked to make that particular mob visible again in my case.

It may be used as an offensive spell to remove an enemy's magical advantages, or as a benign spell to completely remove your own magical affects. If you are not a mage, you must be affected by the 'detect magic' to be able to use this spell. Though mages do not necessarily need to use it, being under the affects of 'detect magic' will reveal more information unavailable otherwise or to other classes. Dispel magic can be used by players and mobiles alike against either players or mobiles. It cannot remove affects from equipment, your race or your deity; some other affects are immune to this spell as well. When a caster successfully casts dispel magic on themselves they will remove all of their dispel-able magical affects. If a mage successfully dispels a victim, the number of affects stripped will depend on their success and intelligence. Otherwise a successful cast of 'dispel magic' on a victim will result in the removal of a single affect each time (victims will notice when and what affects are stripped).

Eat instructs your character to eat an item of food or a magical pill (which function in a similar fashion as potions); pills do not fill stomach space. When you are hungry or thirsty (you will see messages at each tick that tell you if you are starving or dying of thirst, and can check your current state with either 'score' or 'oldscore'), you will not regain hitpoints, movement points or mana back as rapidly as if you were well fed and hydrated. If you stay hungry or thirsty too long and you are not an Avatar, your mental state will begin to suffer. Your combat skills will be affected, your coordination will suffer and you may begin to either hallucinate or become depressed. Eating, drinking and a little rest will solve this problem after a short period of time. See MENTALSTATES ~ 1 1241229624 EATING DRINKING HUNGER THIRST~ &cEating and drinking are very important...

To allow mobprogs to be created to manipulate area economies, making them interactive and interdependent, there are two mpcommands: mpdeposit, and mpwithdraw (see related helpfiles). There is also an 'if economy' ifcheck. The aset command can also be used to adjust an area's economy by hand (example: aset <area filename> low_economy <amount>, this will give the specified area a minimum economy at the level you set). Mobs will not repop with more gold than what they were originally created with, but if the area economy runs low they will begin to repop with less until the economy is replenished (as they all share the same gold pool).

If only 'redit exit <direction>' is specified, the exit will be removed. The 'key' field is optional when specifying keywords. All other fields are required previous to the field desired. Examples: redit exit n 3001 - Creates an exit north to room 3001 redit exit n 3001 3 gate - Changes the exit north to have a closed "gate" redit exit n 3001 3 15 gate - Changes the gate to allow use of a key vnum 15 redit exit n - Removes the north exit See also help exflags, and doordirs ~ 1 1122239142 EXITS~ Syntax: exits Tells you the visible exits of the room you are in.

Please refrain from yelling out 'help! i've got an xp bug!!1one lolz' because it's rather annoying when i'm knee- deep in 15 other, more immensely important, projects for the mud. &W You can gain experience to level your character through just about everything - from adepting skills and spells, to completing quests, to simply hacking and slashing through mobs. Priests gain experience from healing. Mages from casting. Fighters gain more experience in battle than other classes, but also lose more for fleeing/dying. Scouts gain a small amount of experience for exploring new areas. This helpfile will explain to you how you gain experience from mobs, and why there's no such thing as an 'experience bug'. Firstly, if the mob you're fighting is within 10 levels of your own level, you'll gain experience for every hit you land on the mob. The stronger the mob and the more amount of damage you do to it, the more experience you'll gain (note - fighters get a bit extra).&z xp_gain = (( ch->fighting->xp * dam ) / (victim->max_hit)) * (victim->level / ch->level) &W Secondly, once you've actually KILLED the mob, you'll gain another payload of experience. This takes into account several factors, those being: Your level versus the level of the mobile. To gain any experience at all, you must be within 20 levels. If the mob is higher level than you, you'll gain more experience. Lower level, you'll gain less. This has been SERIOUSLY revamped to ensure that there's a decent range to match our 100 level system. The mobile's 'worth' of experience. This is calculated by the mob's level, it's maximum hp, armor class, hitroll and damroll (plus any dice involved) and randomised. How many times you've killed the mob. See 'HELP KHISTORY'. And finally, any extra flags the mob has to make it stronger/weaker, such as: being aggressive (attacks on sight), having shockshield/fireshield, any resistances or immunities the mob has etc. &zxp_gain = (get_exp_worth(victim) * URANGE(0,(victim->level - gchlev)+21, 10))/10 &GIn addition to all of this, it actually MAKES SENSE to have large groups here. If you would normally get 100k from killing a mob solo, with 2 players you would both get about 75k each. With 3 players (killing the mob 3 times quicker), you would all gain about 62k each. MORE EXPERIENCE WITH MORE MEMBERS! &RIf you are still having problems, experience is now a gameplay issue. It is not related to anything that can be 'fixed' in the code. If you are not having luck levelling in one area, it is recommended that you simply try another area. Please keep your anger in check, and know that we are churning out areas as fast as we can - these things take time, but we are working hard to make this a better place for all of us. &c See also help &WDEXP TEXP GMB GROUP COMPANION ~ 1 1122239142 EXPIRE~ At anytime if you are stunned at hp -1 or below you may choose to expire.

Much time would pass before mages and other classes alike would learn the true power of these spells. In the interim, disguised as an assassin, Thanatos became interested in a more minor problem: that of carrying off the loot he gained from all those he slew with Quantum Spike. Realising that such a formula would be easily grasped by his class, he thought to extend it freely. As a final touch to the spell, he thought he would spite those of other classes by inbuing into these containers a quality which made them unobtainable by the other classes. &YNOTE: STAFF will no longer help players retrieve their portals from their corpses due to over-weight issues.

Gnomes are physically weak although mentally strong. Gnomes are a short, stocky race, similar to their dwarven cousins.

The Clan History: The Neutral Clan was formed during those dark times of no magic, where all had to learn to get along and help one another. Since they were always scorned for their perpetual believe in non-violence, they were forced into secrecy, so that none could harm them while they worked to help those they could. It was not an easy task that they undertook, for the helped all: Good and Evil. They let no one go without the proper care, even those they helped sometimes slayed the ones to whom they should owe their lives. It was a sad, pitiful existence, but those of the Neutral Clan didn't give it a second thought. To do so would mean their struggle of helping all those who come before them would be a lie. II. The Clan Purpose: This clan would see the squabbles and wars between the Alliance and the Throng as wasteful, in terms of time and life, as well as destructive to the land. They would urge a compromise, and a balance in power between both those clans, and races that tend to be natural enemies. III. Role Play in the Neutral Clan: You can RP any way you wish, but it must be non-violent in nature. This clan is about remaining out of the wars and conflicts. You can, however, try to facilitate peace between anyone--this is encouraged. You do not side with any other Clans, only mediate a peaceful resolution. ~ 13 1122239142 HALF-ELF HALFELF HALFELVES~ These beautiful creatures are the result of the mixing of human and Elven blood.

Agile, fortunate, and healthy, though neither strong nor particularly trustworthy, a halfling makes for a curious (though somewhat underpowered) ally. Halflings have compact bodies and thick, long limbs, and usually have very hairy feet. Eye color range from blue, brown, green, and any shade in between.

Among other things, it affects: - heavily influences the amount of mana a character gains at level - affects the amount of mana regenerated or recovered at each tick if a character is resting or sleeping - the rate at which a character learns or lands a new skill or spell - the percentage rate at which a character practices a new language Intelligence is an important factor in learning between combatants. If a character fights a creature several times, the more intelligent of the two opponents will gain an advantage over time... Intelligence is the prime attribute of the mage. ~ 108 1209820442 INTEGER~ Integer Number Variables The first type of variable we need to know about is of class type int - short for integer. An int variable can store a value in the range -32768 to +32767. You can think of it as a largish positive or negative whole number: no fractional part is allowed. To declare an int you use the instruction: int a; To assign a value to our integer variable we would use the following C statement: a=10; The C programming language uses the "=" character for assignment. A statement of the form a=10; should be interpreted as take the numerical value 10 and store it in a memory location associated with the integer variable a. The "=" character should not be seen as an equality otherwise writing statements of the form: a=a+10; will get mathematicians blowing fuses! This statement should be interpreted as take the current value stored in a memory location associated with the integer variable a; add the numerical value 10 to it and then replace this value in the memory location associated with a. ~ 107 1219896536 INTER~ ~ 0 1122239142 INTERMUD3~ Intermud3 is a protocol which allows you to chat with people on other mud who are also connected to Intermud-3.

(Modifying a flag, changing a password... etc). Use FORCE to make the character do your bidding. If we make any changes to the char, we comment the char and place a note in their inventory explaining who loaded them up and what changes were made. The character is transed to room 99 and forced to quit there (unless they are going to be left in hell). If we don't make any changes to the char, we trans them back from where they came and force quit them there. Loadup is used primarily when a player quits to avoid dealing with immortals or if they quit before you finish writing a comment. But it is also used to investigate chars for duping and other allegations made against them. So... there is actually a wide range of reasons to use loadup and you are encouraged to use your discretion in this area. If you load up a character to slay or purge them, you must post in 1205.

After an amount of time it will return and enter the caster's mind, filling it with places and locations of where such item can be found. Needless to say, the more accurate the thought, the more clearer the picture, the less garbage one will receive as result. &OFor e.g. : cast locate red&c - will reveal a lot of red items &OFor e.g. : cast locate red-nose&c - will reveal items with keyword red and nose (if any exist) &OFor e.g. : cast locate Ilyessa&c - will reveal items with keyword Ilyessa (such as corpses if any may exist) &D ~ 102 1122239142 LOCUST~ .

LOG ALL logs all character commands. It is a server-wide toggle; it does not persist across reboots. SNOOP shows you a copy of all the input and output going to a character. The character must have an open channel. You may snoop more than one character at a time. The input from the player will be displayed with a header of the players name and a percentage sign (i.e. Mudder%) SNOOP yourself to cancel all outstanding snoops. -- Do not snoop people being intimate. <i.e. Mudsex, voyeurism, etc...> -- Do not repeat information learned in snoop casually, especially to mortals -- Only snoop a person talking to a higher level Immortal with the higher Immortals "Express Permission". -- If a higher level Immortal begins communication with someone you are snooping, inform that higher Immortal immediately of the snoop. -- Any incidental references learned in snoop should be disregarded ** For example, you hear someone is having a mud affair, it is not ** important to the reason you are snooping.

This change in racial attributes occurs primarily at night when the moon is high and full, but some have so mastered the skill that they can choose to live as either race they prefer for so long as they wish to remain in such form. The existance of these creatures is purely coincidental as only those who are born with this ability may ever retain it. The likelyhood of a humanoid infant possessing this rare but interesting condition is relatively rare but as they share the same instinctual feelings wolves have for thier pack, these lycanthrope tend to cluster together and form communities of thier own to support one another. ~ 0 1122239142 'MACES AND HAMMERS' MACES HAMMERS~ MACES and HAMMERS are the battle-ready equivalents of their respective original forms, being the club and the tool hammer.

A typical mpflag will look like : testing:3=[1] "testing" is the name of the flag, "3" is the vnum of the mob that assigned the flag, and the "[1]" is the bit that is enabled. When more than one bit is enabled, it will look more like: testing:3=[1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1] In this case, bits 1 and 11 are enabled, 2-10 are disabled. To make use of these flags, use the "isflagged" ifchecks. Mpflags will be assigned to a player for a mobs "level X intelligence".

The "tag" can be both a "string variable" (a group of characters, or words) or an "integer" variable, a number. If using a number you can use the ifcheck "istagged" to compare how big or little the number is using <>= operators. The tag assigned to a character will last on the character based on the mob's intelligence and level that assigned it. (eg: INT x LEVEL ) So a level 10 mob with an intelligence of 13 will tag for a length of 130 ticks. These tags will save to a characters pfile and will last over logging out and logging in. You can also set the timer for a tag using the commands "noexpire" or "timer". Example: mptag noexpire $n <tag> [value] mptag timer <#> $n <tag> [value] You can additionally specify a vnum to be associated with a particular tag. Tagging a mob with the 0 vnum allows all mobs to see/modify that tag. Example: mptag $n <tag>:<vnum> [value] mptag $n <tag>:0 [value] Mprmtag can also be used to clear all bits of a particular mpflag. See MPFLAG for more information.

Balance in power is important to us. When you choose multiclass, we will ask you if you'd like a second class, or a third class. You may choose to be dual classed or triple classed. Realize that the balance occurs primarily at level 100. Single classes have the advantage of leveling much more quickly, and gaining a health bonus over dual and triple classes. Single class casters get a bonus to damage of their magic spells they cast. Single class may receive spells/skills that are more potent then dual, and tripleclass. Also each additional class you take the lower the maximum that it is possible to adept that spell/skill will be. Dual classes have a health bonus over triple classes, but not as big a bonus as single classes do. They do level quicker than triple classes, however. Dual/Triple class casters that do not have a warrior-like class in their combo get a damage bonus to the spells they cast. Keep in mind that the combination you choose will affect the abilities and attributes you receive. For example, it is recommended that new players go with a warrior (or similar) type class for their first class, as this will grant them greater health.

The 'dig' skill will also dig through the passage from the OTHER side, so if you create an exit west to room 101, and in room 101 create a DIG exit east, digging either direction will open both. The only problem then is if a player is IN the passage during reset, they might not be able to get back out, heh. &RSORRY NOT CREATE A PASSAGE - PLAYERS CAN'T CREATE PASSAGES.

The PASSWORD command is protected against being snooped or logged; it is impossible for any immortal to in any way see, find or retrieve it. It is the responsibility of the player to ensure that the password of the character is kept secure. Passwords can not contain certain characters, or spaces. We also advise that you use an alphanumeric password (one containing both numbers and letters) as they are harder to guess. We also recommend that you choose a password that is greater than 6 characters in length. A good rule of thumb is if it is in the dictionary, it is probably not a good password. NOTE: if you decide to trade a character, you do so at your own risk. Immortals are not responsible for ensuring fair trades. You may seek an immortal to oversee a trade, but it is not their responsibility. &YThe password policy is: password equals ownership.&w See also PASSWORD_ZMUD ~ 2 1122239142 PASSWORD_ZMUD~ When you're using zMUD and want to change your password, remember to change it in the zMUD character settings as well as on the 6D.

If you have forgotten your character's password but can still log on with the character, you can still find out what the password is. Log on with that character, click on 'View', then 'Preferences' and then click on General Settings'. Find the checkbox for 'Gag Password' and make sure the box is not checked.

If you wish for the rekey to be completed at the same time, you must contact a level 56 or higher immortal. The rename can be purchased with 20 glory or a rename scroll. Wedding renames are done with a marriage license by Blorin, the Darkhaven engraver. (See help wedding) Renames are to be medieval in style for mortals and must not contain the name of an immortal without their expressed consent. Items will not be renamed to machine gun, silly putty, etc. Before contacting an immortal to redeem glory or scrolls for a rename, please have in mind what you would like done. You will need to consider the following: Short description - what is seen when the item is worn by a person. Long description - what is seen when the item is lying on the ground. Rekey - the renaming of the item (usually something from the short desc) ~ 108 1210273424 RENUMBER~ &YSyntax: renumber <area filename> <new vnum base> [flags] Flags: fillgaps verbose &pExample: renumber haon.are 6100 fillgaps verbose&w The renumber command renumbers an entire area to a new vnum base. All rooms, objects and mobs will be renumbered, and all references to them will be fixed (changed to reflect the new vnum for each object/mob/room). These references include: resets, exits, shops, repair shops, and the objvals of some objects (containers and levers). Unless the "&pfillgaps&w" flag is supplied, the command doesn't fill vnum gaps. If you just want to fill the gaps in the area instead of changing the vnum base, simply supply the same vnum base (duh!). If the "&pverbose&w" flag is not supplied the command will simply report the actions. If it's supplied, it will also list all the vnum changes, and report details on all the reference fixes. The command will only modify references inside the area, except for two-way exits leading into the area, wich will be listed if the "&wverbose&p" flag is supplied (so that you know that you also have to save those areas). Mobprogs can also contain references to vnums, but since prog parsing is far beyond this command, all it does is perform simple string searches and warn you if it finds any (possible) references, and it only does this if the "verbose" flag is supplied. This search is performed only in the progs inside this area, not in every 6D.rog in the game. In conclusion, &Gall references are modified by the command except&w: &p* &Gresets in other areas for things being renumbered &p* &Greferences to these vnums in mobprogs in other areas &p* &Gone-way entrances to the area ~ 1 1122239142 REPAIR~ Syntax: repair <object> repair all Repair allows you to repair equipment and swords at metal blacksmiths, and recharge staves and wands at magical 'blacksmiths.'

This is an imm only command. ~ 1 1122239142 REPOP~ Area resetting happens roughly every 3 minutes if there are no characters in in the area; less often (15 minutes) if any characters are present. Also note that objects lying on the ground will not be regenerated if anyone is in the area when it resets. Area resets are indicated by 'squeaking noises' just prior to the reset. ~ 104 1126018446 RESERVE~ The "Reserve" command enables us to specify certain names that are reserved and cannot be used by players. We can specify names that we want to reserve because they belong to former imms (like Narn and Dominus). We can specify names that are often tried and are a bit of a pain (like Killer or Satan or Seth). We can specify parts of names by preceding the string with an "*"> e.g. reserve *goof This will prevent any name with the substring "goof" ... like ... "goofface", "biggoof" or "biggoofface".

What happened in its history? Are there any major events taking place? How will you take part in it? Read up on the story as much as you can and decide how you can change history to the better or the worse, whatever you desire. &cAfter picturing yourself in this time, in this place, in this world ... it's time to act accordingly. Roleplaying is more than writing a bio and description. You could address people with titles such as Milady, Sir, Milord, Madam,Mistress, Lady, General, ... . You can speak of great adventures that you were part of, and tell about them to others. You can speak of your chosen class, the crafts and talents you have. Roleplaying is simply, playing a role in a certain environment. Participate actively in an ongoing story and decide its course together with others. It's a chance to explore another part of yourself ... perhaps think of something you always wanted to be ... or of what your favorite part would be in a medieval time setting. Would you be a goodie two shoes, a villain, a duke, a general of an army, a wealthy citizen or merely a peasant of a village? Whatever you choose to be, act like it. Citizen don't tend to be too brave and mouthy, dukes aren't likely to take orders from those underneath him.... . Roleplaying isn't obligated, but highly encouraged as it adds another aspect to 6D.ing. Roleplaying mostly happens between players in the same room, but it also can happen over &wicc&c.

It is based on medieval times. Medieval is a time period of lore, magic, warriors, dragons,... and everything you have ever imagined. Times were simple, things like cars, tv, radio, and all of those DID NOT exist. Try to imagine yourself out in the middle of nowhere, with no technology and then you have the basics of medieval. There were courts and castles and magicians and heroes and knights and dragons and monsters of all sorts. Medieval is riding horses and carriages or walking by foot to get to your destination. If you are a magic user it could mean portals or rifts through time. Treachery and thievery could be a way of life, as could being a courtly lord or lady. Secondly, look at your character. Did you pick good, evil or neutral? How about a warrior, a healer, someone who manipulates the dead, someone who derives power from the earth, etc. Look at exactly who you picked to be... and &Wbecome that person&c. If your name is derived from something you read in a book, then take on their actions, their morals..it's a game..it's pretending to be someone else... you become that person. Ask yourself, what does a cleric mean to me, or a warrior, or a beastmaster, or a mage..and become those.. make it fun ...immerse yourself in this world of fantasy.

If 'setboot time' is used, the 6D.sets the manual bit to 1. When it comes time to do the reboot, the mud checks how long it has been running.

A value of 0 represents weapons that haven't yet been sharpened - not necessarily blunt, I would probably just say average. A value of 1 means the weapon has been sharpened before, but is extremely blunt. A value of 30 means the weapon is neither blunt nor sharp - the same as having a value of 0. A value of 100 means the weapon is as sharp as it can humanly be. Sharpness modifies the minimum and maximum damage of the weapon (not hit and numdice), based on the value 30 above. At value6 = 1, the weapon damage will be modified by -29%. At value6 = 30, there will be no mods. At value6 = 100, the weapon will gain an increase of 70%. Basically it's: value6 - 30 = damage modifier %.

The presence of even one noticeably dims the surrounding area, and their homeland is always covered in gloomy night. Their semi-insubstantial nature also allows them to phase through most doors. They make capable warriors and mages, and their shadowy form and natural pass door ability makes them highly effective thieves. They are agile and smart. Despite their decidedly cruel and immoral nature, shades have no allegiance to Tanzean'al, who presents as much a threat to them as the rest of the world. Many see the benefit in fighting Tanzean'al alongside the other kingdoms, but most are likely to seek profit from the chaos of the war via thievery or other underhanded means.

The first tolling of the death of an era rang throughout history when a young magician, known to his few acquaintances as Tanzean'al, was corrupted by his greed and lust for power. Tanzean'al was seduced by the tempting, treacherous whispers of a succubus, a demon temptress who found in Tanzean'al a perfect vessel of destruction. Unholy knowledge wormed its way into his ears, and Tanzean'al practiced magic not meant to be known by mortal minds. One night, in a fit of inhuman rage, Tanzean'al slew his teachers, wielding his newfound powers - to great, terrible effect. Nobody present survived his demonic rampage - his only remaining teacher alive through sheer, coincidental absence. Kolak, the royal magician of Paleon City's court, had been away, visiting another nation in a diplomatic role. When word of the slaughter reached King James, monarch of Paleon, he ordered the immediate capture of the magicidal wizard. His company of soldiers rushed out, but were beset by abominations - hideous races, twisted by Tanzean'al's magic from captured elves and dwarves into darker, more sinister humanoids. The onslaught of the new races - orcs, goblins, ogres and trolls - quickly routed the frightened soldiers, eating most of those who did not flee. Tanzean'al ordered the soldiers' skulls placed on pikes to decorate the front of his fortified manor. Thus, the overwhelming victor of this skirmish, Tanzean'al began his campaign of terror - capturing and warping the small villages in the countryside, gaining new members for his army. This army - this THRONG - mutilated all that stood before it, and its terrible reputation spread. ~ 1 1278882251 STORY-2~ &WChapter 2 : The Alliance &cMeanwhile, King James had just received news of his soldiers' demise, and Tanzean'al's swelling Throng. He met with his General, and they came to the conclusion that Tanzean'al was danger that would require all of their attention and resources. The Royal Magician Kolak, more knowledgeable in these affairs, warned King James that one nation would not be enough - Tanzean'al wielded the powers of Hell itself. Thus was formed the ALLIANCE, the banding together of all the free races to oppose Tanzean'al's Throng. On the Magician's advice, King James contacted all the nations of the free races - Elves, Dwarves, Humans and Gnomes - and urged them to join the Alliance. Heeding his words, and the threat of Tanzean'al's Throng, they assented, and together, the Alliance prepared to do battle with the Throng. The two armies met before the Dwarven city Manaoke. The Throng, fuelled by Tanzean'al's fel energies, had the upper hand - things looked grim for the freedom of the realm. Then, an unexpected boon; Six celestial Dragons descended from the heavens, and joined battle with the Throng. Tanzean'al, outraged at the tipping of the scales in the Alliance's favor, slew the Green Dragon with an eldritch bolt of unholy power. The unparalleled carnage of the battle, coupled with the death of one of the six Dragons. ~ 1 1212956880 STORY-3~ &WChapter 3: Free again &c For centuries, Tanzean'al has been imprisoned in his part of the world. But locking true evil away is impossible, and there are always those that believe the promises of might and power. And thus agents of Tanzean'al were recruited to search the world and to battle the Alliance so they can gain enough of the magic back to free Tanzean'al once again. It was a restless time coming and many battles occured. Sneak attacks from Throng members took the lives of those allied. Tanzean'al has been freed from his imprisonment, and again is raising an army unlike the world has ever known. The Throng are coming to the borders of the free nations who once again have called out to form a strong alliance, so they can be ready for the vicious attacks to come. &D &D ~ 1 1122239142 STR STRENGTH~ Strength (STR in your 'score') represents your character's physical power. The most common concern with strength deals with how much your character can carry. For each additional point of strength you gain an additional amount of maximum carryable weight. Any character with 20 strength can carry 500kgs; Warriors and Rangers can have a maximum of 25 strength, and can therefore carry up to 999kgs when their strength is at its maximum. Strength also affects (among other things): - damage roll and hitroll; for each additional point of strength, each of these will increase - chances of success for bash, stun, bashdoor, shove and drag, and the ability to dual-wield heavier weapons Strength is the prime attribute of warriors, rangers and paladins. ~ 108 1122239142 STRALLOC STR_DUP DISPOSE STRFREE FREAD_STRING FREAD_STRING_NOHASH~ .

This command recursively sends your changes to the SVN server. svn ci -m <message> svn diff svn diff. This is useful for two different purposes. First, those without write access to the BLFS SVN server can use it to generate patches to send to the BLFS-Dev mailing list. To do this, simply edit the files in your local sand box then run svn diff > FILE.patch from the root of your BLFS directory. You can then attach this file to a message to the BLFS-Dev mailing list where someone with editing rights can pick it up and apply it to the book. The second use is to find out what has changed between two revisions using: svn diff -r revision1:revision2 FILENAME. For example: svn diff -r 168:169 index.xml will output a diff showing the changes between revisions 168 and 169 of index.xml. svn move svn move SRC DEST or svn mv SRC DEST or svn rename SRC DEST or svn ren SRC DEST.

Once you've been taught the skill, simply move into the water to begin swimming. Note: This has been made very realistic. Swimming will use up your movement points, and at low percentages, FAST. When you can no longer keep your head above water, you will start to drown, and may even sink under. A good way to practice this skill is to find shallow water close to shore so if you find yourself drowning you can quickly jump out. Be aware that even though your movement points will go down consistently, you may not necessarily see a 'swim message', so keep a careful eye lest you find yourself underwater.

From his torment in prison Tanzean'al developed his powers and used them to mutate and pervert thousands of innocents, creating whole races of evil aberrations, the orcs and goblins, to ravage the lands. Though at first driven back to their unholy pits, it was not long before the Mad Mage's powers became strong enough to break free of prison, and the tide turned against the world.

Should that be the case, of course do not allow the staff member alt to win, they are only there for group involvement. The only exception would be a staff member that is playing his alt for an arena battle, or freeze tag. First step to running a game event is to let players know in advance we are having an event. Post the date and time for a game event on the forums, and gboard. (For example Friday Eastern Standard Time 10pm, we will be having a Drunken Merchant Event. Saturday Eastern Standard Time at 0600am we will be having an arena championship event. That doesn't mean you can not run it on the spur of the moment if players are online. Do it, players love it. Gah, I know things come in life, and it's not easy to commit your time for scheduling events, but the more you can prearrange and post these things, the more likely players will start showing up and coming on for your events. Second step, ooc Game Event will be starting in 10 minutes anyone interesting in participating please send me a tell, the channel we will use for the game event is the event channel. Now you can start your event and let them know that everyone who will be participating will recieve 25 gold each, or whatever the event allows. More challenging event = a little better reward.

Known to haunt the darkest roads and peeking into others' inventories, picking locks, or attacking from behind with deadly back stabs. With amazing dexterity they have the ability to circle around an enemy, but for living such a dark life, thieves have always had a bad reputation so don't be surprised if you are always under suspicion. Thieves start off fairly weak, but as they gain skills such as back stab and circle they soon become dangerous foes. A thief is always useful when there is a lock that needs picked, or an item that one wishes to acquire without detection. As a thief you will often have to walk the dodgy path that others avoid. Thieves are physically average, yet weak in magic. A Thief focuses primarily on &WDEXTERITY&c. Thieves come from the following races - &WHUMAN, HALFLING, OGRE, ORC, TROLL, SHADE, GOBLIN, DROW&c.

Their goal is world Domination, Every creature will bow down to them or will burn in the ashes they leave behind. II. The Clan Purpose: The purpose of the Throng is to destroy the Alliance and put the free races in chains. Taking what is rightfully ours, buy force of arms or through political deceit. The throng will only help their own. But help comes at a price. after all, we are the evil ones. III. Role Play in the Throng: Throng role play can be extremely varied. All Throng members must be deadly, as this furthers our goals on fighting the alliance. Role play is rather open ended, allowing players almost free reign with their characters and their actions, as long as it benefits the clan and does not show weakness. A few examples would be political intrigue allowing the gathering of resources or additional members. No matter what the views portrayed by the RP of the character is, they are expected to have absolute loyalty to the clan, and to the decisions made by leadership. All voices and opinions will be heard. Role play is highly encouraged within the clan. The Code of Honor and Conduct: We are evil, you expect to have a code of Conduct? Honor is a personal choice, but don't expect other clan members to react kindly or for Alliance to believe you have any. Now get back onto the battlefield and start killing!

In addition, when your texp bar reaches 100%, you can continue to gain by solving the questions - but you will gain much less % per solve. For example, from 0 - 100% you'll gain 10% for each solve. 100 - 200% you'll gain 8%. 200 - 500% you'll gain 5%. 500 - 1000% you'll gain 2%. If you make it over 1000% texp, you'll gain only 1% for each successful solve. Staff members may also choose to set a 'global dexp' for the 6D. meaning it will affect all players for one hour.

Short forms of host will work -- e.x. 105, or 105.113, etc. Shortened names will also work. e.x., users fre would show Fredrick and Fred if they were on at the time. The first number, (desc), is the descriptor number that this user is on. The second number is the user's connected state. (See CONSTATES) The third number is the number of seconds the user has been idle. The fourth number is the remote TCP port on the user's host machine. Next is the user's character name, then the user's host address. (Usually the IP number as name resolving is normally disabled.)

Introduction Valgrind is a memory debugging tool. It can help detect memory-related errors that are common and can lead to crashes or other unpredictable behaviour. You can check if it is installed by typing on your command prompt: valgrind --help 2. Running Valgrind Do a clean compile on your program. Then use the command line from your MUD's directory: valgrind --leak-check=yes bin/circle -q <port> 3. Simplified Interpreation of Output I suggest leaving Valgrind running overnight, and using various commands - including spamming new commands you've made, etc. Then "shutdown die" your MUD. You will see something similar to this output at the very bottom: ==7300== HEAP SUMMARY: ==7300== in use at exit: 826 bytes in 31 blocks ==7300== total heap usage: 309,395 allocs, 309,364 frees, 38,722,578 bytes allocated ==7300== ==7300== 16 (8 direct, 8 indirect) bytes in 1 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 3 of 9 ==7300== at 0x4004EC2: calloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:418) ==7300== by 0x813554E: remember (mobact.c:666) ==7300== by 0x8102D51: hit (fight.c:1968) ==7300== by 0x81033ED: perform_attacks (fight.c:2130) ==7300== by 0x8103B09: perform_violence (fight.c:2422) ==7300== by 0x80C9E09: heartbeat (comm.c:1080) ==7300== by 0x80CD2C7: game_loop (comm.c:947) ==7300== by 0x80CEE86: main (comm.c:540) ==7300== ==7300== 80 (56 direct, 24 indirect) bytes in 7 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 7 of 9 ==7300== at 0x4004EC2: calloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:418) ==7300== by 0x813554E: remember (mobact.c:666) ==7300== by 0x8102D51: hit (fight.c:1968) ==7300== by 0x806F913: event_whirlwind (act.offensive.c:1205) ==7300== by 0x80E0B39: event_process (dg_event.c:126) ==7300== by 0x80C9810: heartbeat (comm.c:1060) ==7300== by 0x80CD2C7: game_loop (comm.c:947) ==7300== by 0x80CEE86: main (comm.c:540) ==7300== ==7300== LEAK SUMMARY: ==7300== definitely lost: 64 bytes in 8 blocks ==7300== indirectly lost: 32 bytes in 4 blocks ==7300== possibly lost: 0 bytes in 0 blocks ==7300== still reachable: 730 bytes in 19 blocks ==7300== suppressed: 0 bytes in 0 blocks ==7300== Reachable blocks (those to which a pointer was found) are not shown. ==7300== To see them, rerun with: --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes Understanding Common Errors: ==12345== Invalid read/write of size X This typically means your application is reading or writing memory from/to a location that is not allocated to it. Typical causes are trying to access memory through a pointer that has already been freed, accessing through a pointer that has never been initialized, or a buffer overflow. ==12345== Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s) This is a typical message that you'll see when you're using the value of some variable, but the variable has never been initialized. ==12345== Invalid free() This you'll see if you're trying to free the same memory twice, or if you're trying to free memory that wasn't allocated to you in the first place (probably trying to free an uninitialized pointer). ==12345== XX bytes in X blocks are definitely lost in loss record X of X This is the typical message you will see when a memory leak occurs. Of course the typical way to introduce memory leaks is by allocating memory but overwriting all the pointers to it. 4.

Being a creature of the undead, they require copious quantities of fresh blood. Instead of using mana, Vampires use blood points (BP) for spell casting. If a Vampire takes a large amount of damage, Blood points will be lost, but, Blood points can give a small surge of hit points (HP) in battle when needed. As an undead creature of the night, Vampires receive an armor class (AC) bonus at night, and access to their more powerful skills like 'mistwalk'. Vampires are based off the theme 'The Vampire Chronicles' by Anne Rice. Base stats for vampire before are the below, what class you chose will also adjust your stats.

You can also watch all players from a specific site. We need you to be real careful about the size of your watch file. If you are watching a number of players or sites, please do not just forget about your watches and allow your watch file to grow to outrageous sizes. You should never have more than 5,000 or 10,000 lines in your watch file. If you are doing some watching, be sure you check your watch file daily and either print it, display it, copy it to your hard drive or do whatever you need to do with it but then ... please ... please ... be sure you clear it so that it don't grow huge and eat up all our hard drive space. If you clear your watch file daily ... there should be no problem. If you aren't watching anyone ... you don't have to worry about this. But if you start a watch, it is your responsibility to know how big your watch file is and to stop the watch when you no longer need it. The command &Cwatch size &ctells you how many lines are in your watch file. The command &Cwatch clear&c clears (deletes) your watch file. For the time being the maximum number of lines you can display at one time is 2000. So ... even if you have 5,000 lines in your watch file ... you can only display 1,000 at a time.

Going underwater will require you to either have the &WAQUA BREATH &cspell or hold your breath for a certain amount of time. Swimming is a latent ability that will let you swim faster underwater, as well as stay on the surface without sinking and drowning. Objects can also sink and fall underwater, until they reach the ocean floor. This depends on the weight of the object.

When the use of wizinvis is called for, the following are parameters for its use: - Immortals level 101 through 102 should be visible at all times, save for when snooping, running a quest or some similar circumstance. - Immortals level 103 and up may invis to any level at their discretion. Guidelines for use of wizinvis by 103 and higher: It is considered mandatory to be visible to all other immortals whenever reasonably able to do so. Using wizinvis beyond 101 to facilitate work on a project, allow concentration on something, avoid excessive tells or the like is fine, but it should only be used while necessary. Guidelines for use of wizinvis beyond 101 in immortal channels: Sightings of Someone's in immortal channels should be kept to a minimum. If you are free enough to be able to use an immortal channel, you should be visible to the lowest immortal in that channel; no higher than 103 in Muse, no higher than 101 in immtalk, etc. Being a Someone to anyone on an immortal channel should only occur if you're too tied up to go visible but need to make a comment. The same applies to all situations using channels, tells or actions. Avoid being a Someone to mortals and immortals alike unless you have a good reason to do otherwise.

The abomination will fight well, coordinated as one. Once it is killed, or right before it will get killed, it will splat and all the creatures that were one, will now need to be fought.
