Here's a MUD-ish game I made a long time ago.
Okay, this game is stupid:
It's stupidly optimized. As in, not at all. Don't try to compile it to an EXE because it prolly won't work. I knew absolutely nothing about memory conservation when I coded this, so just run it in the IDE with whatever /'s you need =)
It's stupidly large. I think it makes close to 40MB of files on your HD. Again, old code which could have been improved in a million ways but never will be =)
It's stupidly documented. You gotta check out the code to see what command words it will accept. Especially note the AUTOWIZ command which is what the first person who plays has gotta use (otherwise the whole game it pointless)
There's a stupid error. If you're fighting a monster and you run away, then come back into the room it will have all its health back. Sorry! =)
Now that all the stupidity is out of the way, here's the fun:
You can do pretty much whatever you want. Want a magical fire sword that adds three to your dexterity and lights up dark rooms? Just make one! Check out the EDIT command.
Here's what you basically have to do:
1. Log in and AUTOWIZ a character.
2. Make some basic rooms with the EDIT ROOM (or EDIT MAP..?) command. Don't forget to make a training room, and prolly a shop.
3. Make some simple items with the EDIT ITEMS command. Weapons, armor, torch, etc.
4. Make a monster with the EDIT MONSTER command. Something easy. You can equip it with items you've made.
5. add the monster (or items) to the spawn file of a room with the LOAD command.
6. view the spawn file of a room with the SPAWN command
7. spawn the room with the RESPAWN command.
8. destroy an item or monster with the DEST command (or DESTROY)
9. unload a monster/item from the spawn file with the UNLOAD command.
Those are the standard wiz commands. Enjoy!
*peace*
