| Hi everyone,
I'm starting to do some work on a new mud, and at the moment am planning on using the SMAUG code base. The only thing that I've read that concerns me at the moment is that the most possible vnums that it allows is about 32 thousand (32,767 is it?) ...anyway... the lenth of a short int. I would assume that it's possible to just change this to a long int instead, but has anyone tried this succesfully? I'm sure not many people have any need for more than this, but my plan is for a very large world, so this a big concern to me. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave | Top |

| It is possible to get the max # of vnums up to 2 billion. Go to www.kyndig.com/codes/diku/merc/smaug/snippets/ and look through the list for a 2bil snippet. It's possible to expand for more, but generally 2bil is enough. Post again if you have more questions. | Top |
