Hey George, just had an idea to put into the stock release of Oasis. It's a fairly minor change that I've made myself in the past when I was doing Arcadia (*second version of my MUD, working on third version now*). Basically, it mudlogs before you enter the OLC that you are entering the OLC. Why would you want to do this, you ask? a.) Error checking. I don't know about you but the first thing I check after a crash is, well, tail ~/circle/syslog.CRASH. =) And if someone is in the OLC, chances are it's going to be that. b.) The major reason I once did it in the first place: so you dont repeat yourself 15 times on wizchan to your best builder who flies in and out of the olc without knowing if you were actually heard. Either that or I suppose one of the two of us could make a patch; I'd rather not until I upgarde to 1.6+ since there's no point in using the older versions much anymore.
