Cool Things
1) Targetted Xps System - Much praise to LordSutch
(and everyone else involved) for this system. Adds a great deal to
NewMoon.
2) Boating - It's not currently in at the moment,
but Ozy is the man, for building such a nice system for a text
mud.
3) Herbs - Gotta give credit where credit is do,
Raindog did a great job with the herbs on NewMoon, the rangers guild
is so much more intresting with the making of poultices and
potions.
4) Npcs - The list of the great npcs:
The Lich: a
semi-intelligent npc, summons you back to fight, uses countering
spells a real nice job with him.
Snakeweed: with the exception of using those
poultices (see Critisms), one of the few really fun npcs for high
level evil folks to kill.
5) Theives - True they are a very limited from
combat, but they have the most, and nicests commands around, a very
intresting and fun guild.
5) Code - In general the code on NewMoon is nothing sort of excellent, I yet to see a mud that uses add_items so much, or goes thru such lengths to make unique long descripts..
