The more :powerful/valuable the object/mobile/room you're creating, desto it's :gonna set you back. I agree 1000% with this. I've had an "economy" based construction system in mind for years. I'm thinking that mine would be based on magic points, however, since I like to model the construction of new stuff in the world as the basic kind of magic. The more the constructor "spends" on something, the stronger/better/harder-to-change that something is likely to be. -- Chris Gray cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg01342.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP=MUSH/PG=MUD</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg01344.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Alright...
