Road Map

We are using Cold for engine behind this project. The project has two development branches people can contribute to:

ColdCore Development

This is not intended as a full rewrite for ColdCore, we are just going to smoothe over some of the existing problems. The current roadmap is:

Commands (Brandon) [10% complete]

Normalize into a unique 'ColdCore' command set; do not consider any other mud style when making this set, just make it applicable for the purpose. Then create Command alias sets which people can load, so they can use a Mush-style command set, or a Moo-style, etc.

CML (Levi?) [no status]

For the time being we are going to keep CML. We may supplement it later with a seperate engine which is more html-like, but that is a lower priority. For now, we will create an option on the user where they can define their preferred ctext output (none, CML and in the future whatever we can the html-like one).

Documentation (Brandon) [started]

Better core documentation

Simple ColdC (Brandon) [10% complete]

I will be specing this out, but basically a simple mechanism to script actions on vr things, such as robots and wind-up toys, etc.

Remove Thing Frobs (Levi) [15% complete]

This evil must be purged

Builder/Prigrammer/Admin UIs (Brandon) [0% complete]

Convert these objects to user interface objects

Improved Web Interface (Brandon) [90% complete]

Better web integration

World Development

As some of the rudimentary things are finished with ColdCore, the world development will consist primarily of fleshing out the background, characters and stories. If you wish to assist in any way feel free to contact the domain managers. Domains:

Caislea'n

Manager: Brandon

The Castle.

New Raga

Manager: Brandon (avail, volunteers?)

New Raga is focused around a metropolitan city, and still maintains a democratic form of govenment with an elected Mayor. The Archons in New Raga maintain their distance and generally do not hold official offices. The Castle.

Trithome

Manager: Levi

Trithome is one of the regions effected by the shifting laws of physics, and electronics no longer function. This region has a high amount of steam driven and light technology. It is also a fairly arid region and is rather decentralized, spread througout townships and small settlements. The Castle.

Dezor

Manager: Amy

Dezor is a dezert domain ruled by a dictator Archon. The people of Dezor are held in tight control by the military troops of the govenment.
