Something besides the equivalent of "NO YOU". That shouldn't be hard, right?

@Auspice The whole community needs to get on the IASIP train. We'd be much more tightly knit and love each other more if we all believed in the plight of patriotic birdmen soldier pro wrestlers with drawn-on abs.

If anyone here's interested, here's the first part of my Dev-blog about creating the Evscaperoom. It might be interesting as a view on the kind of thinking and planning was needed.

I totes believe that there shouldn't be player-side automation of XP with this system. Send in a +job, have a staffer sanity-check it for accuracy... easy peasy.
Edit to add: a job I totally volunteer to do, because mindless XP spends/equipment modification (so long as you point me at the rules in the book you want) are the only staff work I'm good at.
For general MU-related questions and How-To Requests.

@Sparks That sounds like a great game, really. I'm saddened to hear it never opened. An SG:U game has the advantage that with just one season, most of the overall mystery is still intact, so the game staff could take it in whatever direction they felt like. I have the skills to code it in Evennia, but yeah, I wouldn't be able to run the game day-to-day.
Tutorials and advice on how to get things done on your game.

4.00.284!
Added Telnet CHARSET negotiation so UTF-8 encoding is enabled automatically
Added 'Clear spawn' action for spawn triggers
Added 'Gag from Log' action for spawn triggers (so a single spawn or an entire capture can be easily gagged from the log)
Added error display for trigger importing (to explain why it failed vs just 'error')
Changed 'Explorer' dialog into 'Character Statistics', and added a lot of refinements to it
Added 'Connection Count' 'Connected Time' 'Total Bytes' as character statistics
Improved internal time code to avoid connect time wraparounds after 49.7 days
Fixed a glitch where if you change the font, if the time & date column is visible it doesn't resize to match
Smallish changes in this one, but good ones. If anyone has any questions about how to do things or if things can be done, please ask! The discord's really helpful, but I'm willing to try to answer things here, also.
I got tired of updates and thread necromancy.

Not sure what's up with this, but I typed a response in the Serenity thread and posted it, but on my first attempt, rather than the new post, it copied my only other post in the thread and posted that.
Deleting the duplicate and trying again worked.
Just to add to this, I love the idea but the time requirements are just not quite possible for me. On certain days I'd not be able to post at all in fact. But I love the idea in theory!
Games other than MU* ! Video games, table-top, TCG, etc.

Me, while playing 7 Days to Die while approaching what seems to be a military bunker: I should probably be careful. This place probably has a minefield.
0.2 seconds later...: Boom.
:/
