What Makes A World Assunder so Special?

A World Assunder

A World Assunder has many unique features, and we're always looking to improve. Some of these features are being implemented as you read this, others will be put in soon, and many are already in place.

Features in Blue are already in place.
Features in Purple are being implemented currently.
Features in Orange not inplace yet, but will be soon.

General:
Danley Coding and Code Base.

Code base will trap crashes and general errors so the mud won't crash. Instead it will record the operation that caused the near-crash and alert imms to review the pertinent code.

Mud will not need to reboot to activate changes. Aside from the raw code base that handles connections and the Danley scripting language (Unique to us!) all additions and changes are soft coded in using Danley, so the mud should only go down for reboot when the server does!

DANLEY: Danley is a system for the imms so they can add in skills, help files, rooms, abilities, modify everything but the raw code base, and never need to do so much as a reboot. This way we need never give out shell passwords or take the mud down for reboot or debugging. We can just give someone the ability to edit combat skills or rooms.

No classes.

Clans and the Teaching System take the place of classes.

Skills, Stats, and Abilities:
Stats are: Intellect, Force of Will, Constitution, Strength, Agility, Endurance, and Charmisa.
INTELLECT – INT – measures how quickly you learn (through use, practice, and being taught/teaching)
FORCE OF WILL – FOW – measures ones ability to keep using a stat at low amounts.
CONSTITUTION – CON – measures how readily one gains health, heals, and resists damage.
STRENGTH – STR – measures how much a person can lift and how much brute force they can deliver.
AGILITY – AGL – how many items you can carry at once, co-ordination, speed, ability at fine motor skills (picking locks, parrying), how much can be done at once.
ENDURANCE – END – (stamina) the higher the endurance, the longer it takes stats to drop.
CHARISMA – CHR – How much mobiles are inclined to like you, and or do as you want.

Stats

A World Assunder is a MUD written in Javabasedonan idea contrived by Atlanta Apostol and Jeffrey Bester (co-codersandImplementors). This is their code base. It is opensource. Blah blah blah.
