Top Mud Sites Forum - View Single Post - Codebase for non-coders?

Parnassus · 11-05-2011, 10:56 PM

I'm not seeing a relationship between a non-coder looking for a base for building purposes and a coder looking to create a mud. I can see now from the quotes that I got lost when you seemed to call C++ a code, rather than a language. The definitions I go by are that languages are like C, Java, Python, Ruby, Basic, etc. Bases are like ROM, DIKU, SMAUG, TBA, D-S, etc. Codes, to me, are things like bases and snippets.

I do run into a bit of confusion, as a builder, where some bases call the fancy bits progs (or programs) and some call it coding.

I read "create a mud" as "writing a mud from scratch" as opposed to (as the OP asked for) "starting a mud from an existing mud base". My apologies for any misunderstandings.
