#mudmonths, or mudyears. Time expressions may include numbers, math
#symbols, or the ? operator to generate random numbers. Example:

#same room. You may leave both blank
#to force the quest manager to find the mob somewhere in the world, but this
#will hurt the performance of your mud, so use with care.
