Tis a text based mud. Well, they handle character creation via this big, ugly, confusing state machine.. Hard as hell to find stuff in, and just a bitch to look at. Well, I've finally got around to starting my own mud in C++, tired of modifying ROM's and Oblivions yadda yadda, and gotten to the point where I need to figure out a way to handle this.. The only way I know of doing it is via a big ugly state machine like ROM and most of the other's that I've seen use.. Mainly the Diku derivatives. What are some other ways a person might go about doing it? Any input would be greatly appreciated.. And if you need more info on what I'm talking about, just ask and I'll try to supply ;-) Thanx, JD _______________________________________________ MUD-Dev maillist - MUD-Dev#kanga,nu <A HREF="http://www.kanga.nu/lists/listinfo/mud-dev">http://www.kanga.nu/lists/listinfo/mud-dev</A> </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <ul compact><li><strong>Follow-Ups</strong>: <ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00840" HREF="msg00840.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] i got's a question for yall on the best way to do something..</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> Marc Hernandez <marc#ias,jb.com></li></ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00838" HREF="msg00838.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] i got's a question for yall on the best way to do something..</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> "Jim Clark" <somewhere#sprint,ca></li></ul> </UL></LI></UL> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00831.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Game Economies</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00829.html">[MUD-Dev] Different approaches?</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00837.html">RE: [MUD-Dev] Different approaches?</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00838.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] i got's a question for yall on the best way to do something..</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="index.html#00834"><STRONG>Date</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thread.html#00834"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> <ul><li>Thread context: <BLOCKQUOTE><UL> <LI><STRONG>Re: [MUD-Dev] i got's a question for yall on the best way to dosomething..</STRONG>, <EM>(continued)</EM> <ul compact> <ul compact> <LI><strong><A NAME="00860" HREF="msg00860.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] i got's a question for yall on the best way to dosomething..</A></strong>, Jp Calderone <a href="mailto:exarkun#flashmail,com">exarkun#flashmail,com</a>, Sat 19 Jun 1999, 03:23 GMT </LI> </ul> <LI><strong><A NAME="00844" HREF="msg00844.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] i got's a question for yall on the best way to dosomething..</A></strong>, PartyG2816 <a href="mailto:PartyG2816#aol,com">PartyG2816#aol,com</a>, Thu 17 Jun 1999, 23:36 GMT </LI> </ul> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00841" HREF="msg00841.html">[MUD-Dev] Game Design [Simulation]</A></strong>, Justin Lockshaw <a href="mailto:JustinL#HQ,Autoweb.com">JustinL#HQ,Autoweb.com</a>, Thu 17 Jun 1999, 21:48 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="00837" HREF="msg00837.html">RE: [MUD-Dev] Different approaches?</A></strong>, Koster, Raph <a href="mailto:rkoster#origin,ea.com">rkoster#origin,ea.com</a>, Thu 17 Jun 1999, 18:31 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="00834" HREF="msg00834.html">[MUD-Dev] i got's a question for yall on the best way to do something..</A></strong>, PartyG2816 <a href="mailto:PartyG2816#aol,com">PartyG2816#aol,com</a>, Thu 17 Jun 1999, 15:38 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00838" HREF="msg00838.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] i got's a question for yall on the best way to do something..</A></strong>, Jim Clark <a href="mailto:somewhere#sprint,ca">somewhere#sprint,ca</a>, Thu 17 Jun 1999, 21:48 GMT </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00840" HREF="msg00840.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] i got's a question for yall on the best way to do something..</A></strong>, Marc Hernandez <a href="mailto:marc#ias,jb.com">marc#ias,jb.com</a>, Thu 17 Jun 1999, 21:48 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00827" HREF="msg00827.html">[MUD-Dev] 3D Anarchy</A></strong>, Adam Wiggins <a href="mailto:adam#angel,com">adam#angel,com</a>, Thu 17 Jun 1999, 15:37 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="00826" HREF="msg00826.html">[MUD-Dev] Properties of computer languages</A></strong>, Caliban Tiresias Darklock <a href="mailto:caliban#darklock,com">caliban#darklock,com</a>, Thu 17 Jun 1999, 08:19 GMT </LI> </UL></BLOCKQUOTE> </ul> <hr> <center> [ <a href="../">Other Periods</a> | <a href="../../">Other mailing lists</a> | <a href="/search.php3">Search</a> ] </center> <hr> </body> </html>
