Node Mud Server

This project is meant to establish a mud server using Node.JS that is fully extendable during runtime. Most development can be done in game by issuing commands and uploading/pasting scripts written in Javascript directly to the game server.

Mud protocols the server will support:

• MCCP2 (Compression of sent and received text)
• MXP (Out of band data e.g. menus, variables, etc)
• MSSP (Mud Server Status Protocol. A protocol that reports information about your server so sites like mudstats.com can automatically update its directory of MUDs.

Design Philosphy

• Full Game Systems can be implemented at runtime
• Game World Persistence
• ...

Prerequisites
