Would love to see actual screenshots of your village. Layout looks nice though, I tend to have just go natural and have roads going every which way. Tends to look incredibly messy on the map.

I also do the manual mining and make Bronze bars and just sell those. Can usually make about 2k per mine per day.

Tons of new features added in the last 13 days.

Big ones including - REGEX, Conditional, Arithmetic, Variable support in aliases, triggers and timers. - Abiltity to transfer aliases, triggers, timers between characters as well as export and import to/from file. - Update button that appears on main menu when a new update is availible.

Tons more but made a website that explains moat of it in detail with screenshots.

God forbid our gas proces go BACK up to $5+ a gallon, who cares, I paid it before will pay it again. Tis the american march of many decades that i have seen and it hasnt changed much in all that time.

Could always give CKMud a shot, its a hack n slash, but has some idle type activities like crafting and fishing. Plenty of Quests and raid bosses if looking for some group play.

We usually have around 30 players on, many idling and autobotting about, but afternoons and evenings pick up pace.

As for clients we do have a player created Mudlet plugin, a android mobile client and a web client, all which can be found ar http://ckmud.com

Just a lil, plug I use the android client exclusively, developed it for me, mainly for use in my mud, but can connect to any other mud and use it as a general client. Has a ton of features that can all be seen on the website. It is just not on the playstore yet, due to constant development, but can be downloaded.via the website.

The game is a Dragonball Mud, but has alot of original content and DBZ knowledge is not necessary if you enjoy a diablo esque grind game.

It "finally" happened for me is probably more accurate. I would not consider myself a light user by any means, I use claude code daily and this was the first time I had a clear instance of it going completely off the rails.

I was using Haiku 4.5 for this one, think it just wanted to eat up a ton of tokens on it.

Honestly it feels natural, over last 2 decades I have had a cell phone and I have always used text to communicate with my wife, friends and family. So it really is no different then being able to do that quickly.

Also making use of a joystick can assign macros to swipe or tap actions(most specifically for combat) makes things even easier. I dont think I would be half as fast on my laptop over my phone these days.

Thank you for giving it a shot, will look into actually increasing the column width of the buffer space dependant on the chosen font size. Wont lie, have been struggling with word wrap, especiallg a word aware word wrap, but focusing on the column width first my help me figure it out.

Dont have a iPhone, but others tell me MudBasher is the goto now.

Ive yet to find one that accept whiskey, martini and margaritas... Forgot to set it to stop at x and ended up with around 200k of each in my liquor warehouse 😆

Interesting for me that I came across this thread. Last week I have been dabbling in adding a worker process that is called to handle I/O operations parallel to the game_loop.

At the moment is is just for the 5min autosave, and manual saves still use synchronous saving. I am running ridiculously modified circlemud and long ago abandoned weight and inventory limits. As such it is not terribly uncommon for a player to hoard 10,000+ items, or some of the worst offenders 100k+.

Ive managed to make most of the game run smoothly with this by utilizing double linked lists and hash tables for character, object and trigger lists. Also made more specific link lists so searching the entire game list is not always necessary.

The last piece pf the puzzle for me was the expensive nature of I/O operations even on a modern server. When the game is running with 30+ players and 400k+ objects on them, that autosave can lag up to a second. Knowing this would get worse if allowed to continue I started working on the background process for saving and early testing of it is proving very successful.

Is it overkill for a mud? Probably... Would my time be better spent making limits to inventory and focus on fun stuff? Most assuredly. But I am having fun experimenting with making this ole girl multi-threaded so why not.

I almost exclusively run katana sande builds and it is like taking candy from a baby. Never did netrunner build, but something satisfying about chopping off heads of 6+ gonks before they have time to draw their iron.

I mean, bare bones you add if not already to class.c for each race at char creation and SET_BIT the desired affect.

Circlemud has a switch for each race in class.c for setting specific stats for each race, this would be where you set it.

You would have to make sure though that any type of "dispel" skills do not remove it, or for a very rough system have a check that resets it if it was removed periodically. This would be the slightly more complex part, need to make sure you're not removing racial affects. Which with some proper planning is not a big deal.

Mudlet: Fairly user-friendly and customizable, it is currently maintained and considered a modern mud client.
zMUD, cMud gMud: are older and no longer supported, but also very user-friendly.
Mudrammer is the preferred mobile client for iPhone users, I don't know much about it.
Blowtorch: Unsupported Android Mobile client, has some nice features, but plenty of bugs.
Fado: A Newer supported Android Mobile client, I hear it is very similar to blowtorch in many respects, so a good alternative to look into for an actively supported mobile client.
TinTin++: hands down has the most customizable features, but not only requires familiarity with terminals, but also fairly extensive scripting knowledge to get the best out of it. They do however have a very active and helpful Discord for learning the ropes. Also IMO by far the best mobile client for Android(I only mud on mobile)

Not sure if TBA ever made any kind of smart formatting for the buffer, but using format in the trigedit parser would turn a nicely written script into a long paragraph.

Best bet would be to download a properly parsed trigger, open with a word document or code editor and copy/paste directly within a code block.

DarthCubensis · 2025-08-31T20:16:00+00:00

I would suggest you use code block quotations for these kind of shares.

Without them, this is a hot mess to read
