Um, you dont have to have archie installed to use it. Just telnet archie.rutgers.edu and do a search there. > 1) Make it a skill that different classes get at different levels I've chosen to make it a thief only skill.

Probably rather easy to check if any dogs are in your area, though a better solution would be to track the one closest in terms of # of rooms. > 3) Limit the max number of rooms you can track from (perhaps make > this increase with skill% AND level). Tracking the DracoLich > from the Bakery in midgaard makes damn little sense, period! Even more so when the dracolich is a sentinel mob. Kinda hard to find tracks for a mob that never moves. I'm not sure if I've put in this check or not, but I think track should check if a mob is sentinel and if so not track it. > Jer -> (*SIGH* OK, Jeremy, add a NO_TRACKING room flag and a NO_TRACK > mob flag, please...it's gotta be done, I guess :) Probably a good idea and easy enuf to implement. > 4) perhaps add a toggle that will always do an 'exits' when a > player is tracking, so they can see for themself what lies in > that direction. Probably somethign more of a job for tintin, but I see your point. > All DTs will be lighted in v3.0, yea! You wouldnt happen to be keeping a log of your changes have you?
