Recently, I've been thinking about replacing the stock boards system =
with a more useful (IMHO) notes system, as can be seen on many ROM based =
muds. I could have sworn I'd seen a snippet or patch on such a system, =
but after looking through the FTP site I was unable to locate anything =
pertaining to it. Does anybody know the whereabouts of any reference at =
all to such a system? Even one based on ROM or any other Diku-based MUD =
might be of help, seeing as they share similar aspects.
On another random note:
I was wondering if anybody else feels that the stock level_exp =
isn't all that great. It seems like sometimes it is semi-parabolic, =
other times it is linear, and yet other times it is damn near random. =
I've already replaced it with a much simpler system using a few formulas =
based on level (and in the process rendered close to 400 lines of CASE =
statements unnecessary [105 lvl mud, 100 mortal]), simply because it =
just seemed really wasteful to me. Whats everybody else's take on this =
one?

P.S. I also got rid of another 5000+ lines of CASE's by recoding the =
Saving Throws and Thac0 tables via formulas. [12 classes]. Anybody else =
doing things like this?
