I've found myself bored lately and with free time. If anyone has a convincing pitch for a project to work on and needs an expert coder please contact me.
A little bit about myself– Been programming for a long time. Been game designing for a long time.
Love systems programming. Interested in simple games. Interested in projects from scratch.
Interested in genre emulation. (Games from the past redesigned for multiplayer, etc.)
Prefer futuristic and medieval RPG genre. Interested in PVP works.
Also if you have an established game and find yourself needing help with modifications or streamlining, contact me.
I have a few of things I'm working on that might appeal to you.
One is the DeepMUD code base (Merc/ROM). Anyone else would call it "done", and have released it by now, but I'm a perfectionist. I also know my limits. Aside from finding any serious stupidities on my part, it needs better OLC and and I've never found the time to make the mob AI more than rudimentary (yes, my mobs have emotions!). (see my sig, 'help email' if I'm not on.)
I'm also working on HSpace, a 3D space system for PennMUSH: mindgames-studio.com 4201
And, I'm putting together a team to create a DIKU-style combat system for MUSH/MUX servers. Why? Because MUSH servers are extremely mature and I see no point in re-inventing the wheel, and "mushcode" walks all over any "prog" code. Having done the Dikurivitive thing for ten years, I think it's smarter than starting from scratch while avoiding the dreaded license and still getting to "do it right" from the beginning.
heh well if your interested you could help out with my latest project, wilderness for tbamud! heh drop me a line if at all interested :)

Im just gonna make this short and simple for you so if your not interested I don't waste any of your time. I am in need of a head coder, With only me working on this stock code it can be a long time before my mud can even think about seeing beta. Forever Fantasy is a RoT code base in dire need of fixing up. Please message me on here if you have any questions or logg onto Forever Fantasy at

I am usually logged on around 5pm EST. Thank you for your Time Rayvn
Speaking of those… is there a wilderness system that plugs into RoM? I always wondered. Sometimes there are those between areas that it would be really nice to NOT build ;p.

I'm not sure. I *think* I've seen wilderness snippets at times on this site. I don't know if they will plug straight in or not.
I hear you, it's one of the things I remember people always talking about, but I never remembered seeing a 'get wilderness_12.c' or such. Might be a great addition for the RaM project though, allow worlds to be built with the main areas, then wilderness between etc.
I think I've only used a handful of snips over the years, but that's one that I wouldn't mind not having to reinvent heh. Although I'm sure I'd hack the heck out of any I found making it into the version I want. I'm sure I'll have to knuckle down and just write my own heh ;D

I think they're pretty easy really. There's more than one way to do it but arrays with x/y coordinate is by far the most popular. I'm working on a codebase in Ruby with Chris Bailey that's coming along nicely and I think it'll include that tool by default.
