I think someone needs to split off the advanced UI sub-discussion. Apologies to the OP.

@viriato

- I'm with you on writing being faster for many MUD actions and plain text being 'purer' overall. I'm an old-schooler on plain telnet myself and even zMUD with its perks is an "abomination" for me

I built the GUI for the young'uns out there who would not otherwise fire up a MUD.

- The images are not animated. They are, as you said, just hot areas on the screen that you can drop into or tap, 2tap, 3tap, etc. The only thing that *looks* animated is when your avatar changes states (sleeping, invisible, flying, etc.)

- Bedlam is and will always be free to play over . The app is a separate commercial venture (but its LT version offers months of free play as well).
