Subject: [MUD-Dev] Re[2]:[MUD-Dev] Re: MUD Design doc (long) 

&gt;Now the trick becomes making a similar system to deal 
&gt;with physical combat...  Substitute fatigue for mana, 
&gt;have a list of combat maneuvers with advantages and 
&gt;disadvantages for each situation, and go from there?
&gt;
&gt;Another problem:  How do you protect players from the 
&gt;ravages of real lag?  Wouldn't that leave their 
&gt;characters as drooling idiots, standing around being 
&gt;punching bags for their opponents?

Incredibly complex, self written combat scripts. Sort
of like mob progs, but for characters. The hard part
would be testing your scripts. However, you could do
a training building or some place they could go to have
practice combats. Then the game would turn into one of
those "program the robot" games, like Carnage Heart, or
some of the older games like that. Just an idea.

Quzah.
