@Uachet I'm going to venture a guess here that the devs get paid off more than just "how much money did Starmourn bring in" since it's been in development for 3 years (aka making no money) prior to launch, and they aren't begging on the streets afaik.

You would be correct. This is peoples' full-time jobs!

Just to add on to what everyone is saying, but for a lot of people who have been playing MUDs for years, writing scripts -IS- the game.

It's a puzzle game where you are figuring out the most efficient way to tackle the game within the rules and constraints of the game. A puzzle game with social and RP elements.

[Mudlet] IRE Mapping Script and Crowdmap for Starmourn

The IRE mapping script now supports a Starmourn crowdmap!

Not using it yet? Give it a go! It features fast speedwalking, robust room and area search (helps you to find your destination easier), API and events for scripting.

You are using it? Update to version 19.1.1 when requested to (by downloading, uninstalling and installing the new mudlet-mapper.xml). Then download the crowdmap by using mconfig crowdmap on

The Crowdmap features:
- All transports and PTPs in the voidgate network; easily get between different hunting areas
- Room markings; all you would expect from MAP, plus $ for denizen shops, TT for trade terminals, T for Transports and P for PTPs, making finding a room easier if you can't remember the name
- Area name cleanup, compared to base; no more "Unnamed areas"

The script and crowdmap are maintained here (https://github.com/IRE-Mudlet-Mapping); if you have any issues feel free to message Casimar in-game, create an issue on github, or join us on Discord (https://discord.gg/7sEfSbr). We welcome contributions too, come join us on Discord!

Upcoming features:
- Starmourn flying support
- Utilisation of Lifts

- GOTO (Junk/Repair) support, to go to your closest!

Big thanks to @keneanung for setting it up and @Casimar for doing all of the map improvements!

Shi Dhuk

@RocketCat had sent me a proposal for yoga in Starmourn, which was very helpful. I took it, reworked it to fit more with my vision for the Starmourn universe, and here's the result. Just a bit of worldbuilding for you guys to hang your RP hats on.

but I still think that long term it hurts the game as a whole more than helps it.

Some of the stuff we develop people really enjoy. So I'm going with

Re: What do we want? Letters/Datashards. When do we want them? As soon as possible, please.

I tried posting this but it seem to have gotten eaten, I guess.

Here is an example of why we need something that allows for formatted communication between one another. Now, the creator of this message deserves credit for working with what we have available right now, but it shouldn't be this way, to be honest. This is a need, not a want. Though, I do want this need to be met for the sake of everyone.

Re: Grinding to max level

Personally, I feel if you are even using an alias and not hand typing out the full syntax then you're pretending to mud. Also, using things like chat windows, highlights and maps. If it isn't eye strain and graph paper then you're only cheating yourself and are not a true gamer. < /sarcasm>

Re: About Space and Ship PK

kamyr said:
Also in our discussion: Space quests (cargo, combat, and collection). Illegal quests (eg carrying drugs or unsanctioned slaves). Team Space Police (cargo scanners for detecting contraband). NPC 'patrols' or activity (for random space activity and stuff for Space Police to do outside of incursions). Generated bashing zones outside of the normal ones that you have to fly to and land, with more valuable zones in more dangerous space.

Yep, lots of this stuff planned for the future

As I mentioned above, we'll likely change things as we have more systems in play. We've been open for three weeks, there's many years of continued development to catch up to the other IRE games, EVE, and those other games that have been in active development for 15+ years.

Re: Scoundrel Interrupt Issue

Wuff said:

Literally an interrupt.

You’re actually right for once regarding Stun! Clap clap.

Can we keep the e-peen swinging ego contest elsewhere? Like IC or discord? Most of us are just trying to get valuable information or help make the game better. No need to get like this.
