I'm talking about no levels, no classes, 200+ spells, completely recoded spell templates, an entirely new parser, an extremely complicated race implementation that has affects everywhere throughout the code, a completely rewritten fight.c, seven new files (parser.c, nanny.c, newbie.c, etc.), entirely event driven source coed, dynamically added socials, completely changed room/obj/mob file formats (COMPLETELY), most of the comm.c code has been changed, no mana, etc., etc. Too numerous to even go on, but I've done a lot. Looking at my MUD can tell you that. So don't try to disprove me when I'm making perfect sense. <*=-+Daniel+-=*> "Forgive me father, for I am sin." +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://cspo.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list_faq.html | +-----------------------------------------------------------+
