What is NMC? | NMC MUCKs for Beginners | Building on NMC MUCKs | Programming on NMC MUCKs | Administering an NMC MUCK | Appendices
A quick introduction to the manual, describing what the different parts of NMC are, what we're trying to do with each part, and the differences between NMC and other similar software.
a. NMC Server
b. NMC MUF
c. Differences from FBMUCK, TinyMUCK, and other MU*s.
Just what the title says. A basic introduction to NMC and MUCKs for total and complete beginners. This is the section I'm most unsure about - if there's something you'd love to have known while you were learning MUCKing, suggest that we add it in here somewhere.
a. The basics - movement, communication, and sight.
b. Customizing your character - messages, @descs, clothing, etc.
c. Building 101 - A basic intro to building a home.
1.
Overview
d. Zombies and Vehicles
Documentation on things useful to builders. Not so much "how to build" (there's places in the previous section for that), but more "how to use NMC's advanced building tools and make the most out of them".
a. Regions
b. Regnaming
c. Locking.
d. Commands useful to builders
e. Scripting.
f. Region administration commands.
Information on programming using NMC.
a. MUF 101
1. MUF Manual
2. MUF Tutorial
3. MUF Examples
b. NMC Libraries
c. MUF primitives index. (More in-detail than man pages?) (Code examples?) (Appendix?)
d. MPI 101 (Linked to from builder section?)
e. NMC MPI extensions. (+dispatch)
f. MPI primitives index. (More in-detail than mpi pages?) (Examples?) (Appendix?)
A section on things useful to wizards.
a. Downloading, installing, and starting up an NMC MUCK.
1. NMC for Linux
b. @tunes and Admin-locks.
1. @tune settings & what they mean
c. Wizardly commands.
d. Security issues.
e. How To Get a MUCK started (Administration suggestions?)
f. For New Wizards: Suggested rules and policies (?)
Do we really need these in here? Having them would probably be a good thing, but they're also available in the online help of every NMC MUCK. Maybe providing tutorials for some of the more complicated commands, but those should be covered in sections 3-5.
2. @ Commands
3. + Commands
This page is incomplete at
this time and requires more documentation to achieve completeness. You can help with this! Please send all documents to heartwood@members.limitless.org Right now, here are some of the things we
need help with before our current revision can ship.
We also need assistance
with testing to make
sure any bugs are found. Any
suggestions/bugs can be sent to the mailing list.
