:&gt; Hi, I would like to know what data structures do you guys use in
:&gt; your implementation of a nested coordinate system? 

:I'm currently using a variation on an R*-Tree.

I'm using localized containment and association models. No global knowledge
of locations, aside from propogation up and down the containment structure.
Which is good, because I also use lazy allocation.

:&gt; Are you using R*Trees or a similar structure? 

:Why, yes!

No, but I've looked at them quite a bit, thanks to JCL...

:&gt; Has anyone played with R*Trees at all? R*Trees sound very
:&gt; interesting but I don't want to spend time trying to code one to
:&gt; then find out that they are really slow or completely inappropriate.
:&gt; R*Trees are traditionally used to model spatial data for maps and
:&gt; other such things. A mud does contain spatial data :).

:If you look back in the archives there has bee some discussion of
:R*-Trees and various other structural forms.  You may also like to
:look for the neighborhood thread which proposed a significantly
:different approach to pure geometry.

Thank you. *bow*

:&gt; BTW: I am writing a text based mud but am planning to go with a
:&gt; roomless approach. Building will be done in graphics (2D for
:&gt; now). Anyone ever attempt this as well?

:Yup, except that I'm going 3D all the way.

Text, 3D all the way. (Well, I suppose a graphical client is possible, as
tokenized output does contain spacial data...) Building... well, yeah, I'm
planning to use a graphical building tool as well. No choice, there.
