I'm bored, anyone here want to code a MUD or similar?
Have good TCP/IP experience, would like implement it as nice OOP object network.
Anyone?

maybe you oculd explain us what "MUD" is and stands for, since I (maybe many others too) don't know what it is at all

if yo want to see a MUD in action, go somewhere like telnet://elephant.org . Its a big text based game you can usually connect to with telnet or a specialised client. People can talk and interact and move about through a textually seen world.

I'm interested in Network programming. And I'm experienced with OOP (is there another way to code?) and C/C++...but ain't a MUD a bit too large a project? I think there should be at least three ppl working on it.

There certainly is no other way to code
the basics of a MUD should be quite simple. The mapping/objects could just use the file system with human readable data files.The whole thing'll fit in RAM anywayz, so you just need a linked net. of room objects, pointing to all the objects/people inside them.
I know it'd be best with a few ppl, thats why i posted here

I would like to help you out...but as seunosewa stated above, I already are involved in one project...īPerhaps you need a part-time coder?

you cant just pass up all potential projects to sourceforge! this is the kind of stuff that YPN should be doing. It's not like we'd be working on somthing that new, it'd be a project for a laugh and to help learn some stuff
