| So,
if anyone knows:
How to choose which vnum a players goes when he dies.
How to make a mob stay on 1 vnum and does not move.
And I don't really understand how to make a Schop. I created a mob, called The Tutorial Shopkeeper, and then went to shops and used him for the shopkeeper. Then I went to the room I wanted to have him and added him there. But, if I want to buy something, it does not work.
If I type LIST, it says, I do not sell anything...
Any help? Someone? | | Top |

Making shops and shopkeepers should be explained in some detail in the SMAUG documentation, e.g. the helpfiles. You could also google for: smaug "making shops" - you might find some interesting information...

| Thanks for answering...

Alright, but which file is that?
You might want to check the mob flag help files.
I am using this little help: http://www.mudworld.org/CBHQ/smaug/smaugi.htm
And there is hasn't mentioned about the mob flags...

| Thats one way, certainly, but there are better. Look at the sentinel flag.
As for what file raw_kill is in, use the instructions above and you should have no problem using grep or windows search to find the raw_kill function. |

| Alright, it is going pretty well now...
Some muds theyre adres is for example: www.theyremud.com (just made up something)
And some of them when you want to connect, they're telnet is:
telnet:theyremud.com:4000
Do they have theyre server on theyre webhosting server?
I mean, I have a server, in Amsterdam, it is for webhosting, and I don't think I am allowed to host the mud server at home... So, some people theyre adres of theyre site and the place to connect to is the same, do they have theyre mud server on theyre webhosting server? If yes, how to do that? | | Top |

| | Usually this is a different kind of account, however, some hosts have both web and shell services available. Check your servers web site, and see if they have account with shell access. If not, then there are a plethera of hosts available. I suggest a google search for "mud host". I would suggest a few, but don't want to start a war on here :) |

| | Are there also free ones? Or do they all cost money? And if my server does have shell, I must upload all the files and documents to the server? And then run startup.bat? | | Top |

| It's somewhat like running a php server. You'll need to upload your MUD files using ftp (or sftp), and then login via the shell (using e.g. ssh - 'secure shell' for secure telnet) and start the server.
However, what you have at home is Windows, and your host is most likely Unix. You'll have to know Unix.
There is a great deal of documentation on how to start the server once you have it all uploaded, both on this forum and online in general. |
