You may not have intended for it to seem like that, but it did. Tyler was showing his MUD, and you told the other user to checkout your MUD. It just felt like you hi-jacked the thread (not saying you intended to). And please, you really should stop taking everything on this list person. Just because someone disagrees with you doesn't mean they are attacking you or attacking your person.

Um He said he was looking for different muds I wasn't trying to over ride what you're doing but I was giving him another opportunity to try another type. Now if you feel that is just terrible you will noticed I have never slammed your work unless you get snarky. I again will refrain from saying anything flippant now because I don't see any benefit in it. You can continue to do so though if you like.

Don't give me that about "eating our own," because I can't really remember to much of you offering your vast amounts of aclaimed knowledge up for advice on this topic, without you can squeeze something in about how awesomeness your own engine is as well.

It's open source, and anyone who wants to add is more than welcome to. I want to make this open source and free because I don't see the need for someone to pay for a mud engine, and the current ones out there are lacking a bit.

Also something called ...' valheru' which appears to be quite like it. Is the codebase available , or how did that happen? :S Or am i shooting in the dark here? @tyler: Thanks for clearing that up. I am about to embark on a programming course and would very much like this to be my future career. The start of this course is still a year or so away, and the focus will mainly be Java and html/css/php for web development, but I like my options diverse.. FLorian 2011/4/11, Ken Perry<whistler@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>:Try Valhalla if you want something a little different we have our own functional language and the mud is still growing. Not to mention it'stheonly mud that stretches back to the beginning since our code base is not only written by the original Diku coders it still is. Well I am an addonbut all the originals still show up from time to time. The code base started back in 87 as a college project and got up to the point ofhaving38,000 users before War craft came out. Anyway now we are a little mudwithonly an active user base of around 500 people and about 10 to 20 anight.But if you're looking for a really strange coding language and theabilityto make worldwide changes at a builders level then give us a shot.

There's thousands of MUD's out there, and about 99 out of a 100 are usually the exact same with a few minute differences. I love MUDding but that kind of takes the fun off of it for me. FLorian 2011/4/11, Littlefield, Tyler<tyler@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>:Hello all: As some of you may or may not be aware, I have been working on a mud engine for the last year or so. It's getting kind of big for me, since this is my first huge project; I just broke 10.5k lines of code a bitago.This leads me to a question I've been kind of tossing around for a while. Are there any individuals, groups or companies that do code review eather free or fairly cheap? I would like to get someone to pick through the code and tell me what they think; good points, and points where I could improve the code. I'm also looking at this from a performance angle, to see if there is someone that can look at that as well. My biggest fear is that I'm going to start building a game off of this in 6-8 months and realize that the performance sucks and needs to be fixed somehow. -- Thanks, Ty __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind__________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind__________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind
