MUD Clients
These are a few clients you can use to play the game with, instead of the regular telnet or java connection. They are what is known as MUD clients, much like you might use mIRC to talk on IRC, these are designed specifically for playing MUDS with. After you click the links save them to your computer and use a program like winzip to unpack them. They should be ready to use right away.

Here is a brief list of features every decent MUD client has:

  • NUMPAD movement - 8,4,6,2,9,1 become north, west, east, south, up, down, in one keystroke
  • HOTKEYS - create your own keys that do things like that above.
  • ALIASES - define shortcuts you can type to do things (e.g. dt = dirt tiny)
  • ACTIONS - "triggers" that are tripped by the MUD (e.g. disarms you = get weapon)
  • COLOUR - receive colour from the mud. Or use ACTIONS to add your own.
  • Last command typed saved, so you can hit enter over and over to spam it
  • Command line parsing (e.g. get 1.;wield 1. sends both lines together separately)
  • Logging - save everything that happened and read it. Save your pks!
