Why player levels? Need to rank a player's ability somehow, so that
their success of performing some task can be computed. If you prefer
another method, by all means, code it. Maybe it'll be adopted.
Why rooms seperated by zones instead of loaded into a grid? If they
were part of a grid then they would all be the same size.
Str/Int/Wis/Dex/Con/Cha are the basics of stats, but that doesnt mean
more wouldn't be useful for something. Again, it's only waiting for you
to write the code.
