We do mud hosting, so I'll abstain from the first part.

But on the offline editor:  We are thinking of doing an offline editor,
mainly because the current offerings are far-inadequate by the time you
start modifying the code.

For example, I have yet to see an offline editor that can handle more
than the stock 6 directions.  This is amazing since many MUDs support
10.  And far inadequate, considering our MUD supports 14 different
directions.

And to specifically answer your question, stock CricleMUD is limited to
326 zones  (x 100 rooms = 32600 VNUMs  ((get it?)) )  But if you are
going to do a good offline editor, why limit anything?  We will shortly
expand the number of zones, and if the editor can't handle it, then we
are once again limited to online.
