Re: The mud client poll
If the price is right, and they agree to do so. But if it's open source, you could pay any developer to add the feature.
They were players. But the point is they liked zMUD, and could no longer use it because of their operating system. I would hate to invest time and effort into developing a custom plugin only to discover that the client was no longer supported, and that players with newer operating systems could no longer use it. In effect, the client developer would be holding my plugin hostage. That is why I feel open source clients have an advantage when it comes to mud owners producing custom scripts and plugins.
Such features are indeed very limited - and rarely supported, even by clients that offer MXP. To be honest I'm not convinced the mud should even be controlling the interface to that degree anyway. What if the player wants to customise the interface themselves, adding their own graphics and layout?
