Source MUD Copyright (C) 2002,2003 Sean Middleditch Sean MiddleditchBasic Source MUD Information ------------------------------------------------------ 1. Introduction ============ Source MUD is a MUD (Multi-User Dungeon) game server. Players connect to the server using telnet, or a MUD client application, to play in a fantasy world with other players. Source MUD is a new codebase; it is not derived from any older codebases like many other popular MUDs. One consequence of this is that many terms and systems found in most other MUDs are different in Source MUD. The Scriptix scripting language is used to extending and modifying the engine core features. 2. Documentation ============= The files in the doc/ directory contain lots of useful information. If you received Source MUD in a pre-packaged form, there should be both plain text and HTML versions of all the documents. If those files are not present, and you have tools for DocBook XML processing installed, the files will be built when you run 'make'. Please note that the coders tend to get out of sync with the document writers (even when they are usually the same person), and the documents often lag behind the code. 3. Support ======= If the documentation doesn't provide an answer, or just confused you more, you can find support in several place. The Source MUD website (http://www.sourcemud.org) has both user forums and a bug tracking system. The website also has information on the Source MUD mailing lists. 4. Upgrading ========= If you are upgrading from a previous Source MUD release, please keep these points in mind: * Be warned that 'make install' will overwrite several key files in the target directory, including sourcemud.conf, and all the files in data/*. You should back up your modified copies, or manually install the Source MUD files you wish to upgrade. * Read the ChangeLog and script documentation before running the new Source * MUD with your old scripts. Pre-1.0 Source MUD releases are very likely to change the API exposed the scripts. * Data files may very likely need to be modified, converted, or flat out rewritten. While we try to stay compatible between pre-1.0 release, it doesn't make sense to limit development of features for compatibility reasons in alpha software. 5.
