We have set up a WebOLC utility for easy editing of zones with your web browser. To access this you go to http://www.addictmud.org/wolc. Click on "OLC Port", and login using your character name and password that you have created on the OLC port (4001). You will be able to access your zone via the web and build there.

Rooms, mobs, objects, scripts and shops can all be built thru this method.

Room building is pretty much self-explanatory. Any questions regarding the flags available and what is expected in a zone is found in OHELP "OLC TIPS" and the Builder’s Handbook. Doors are a bit strange and get some taking used to.

The only thing that cannot be done via the WebOLC are the loading of mobs and objects into rooms, and loading items objects of other objects. Items that load on mobs are done thru the Mob screen on the mob itself not thru Zedit.

For the items built via the WebOLC can be reloaded individually with into the OLC port with the MRELOAD and ORELOAD commands. This is great for making changes and testing individual items. For mass editing, or for changes to rooms and scripts, a reboot of the OLC port is needed to get them into the OLC port. Nynaeve is generally around on the Game Port and you can use rchat to ask for a reboot. If she is not around, drop her a mudmail on the Game Port and she’ll get it done right away.

Any other questions or needs, Nynaeve or any of the other Immortals should be able to answer for you.

Please type "ohelp" without any arguments, and it will supply a list of topics that can be referenced.
