The Code Generator (C.G.) is an Ancient Anguish LPC MUD code generator. You can enter normal narrative text and the C.G. will create syntax correct code that can be pasted directly into Ancient Anguish and run. It currently creates code for rooms and monsters.
It can turn:
You are standing at the edge of a small pond. A large hollow log looks like a good place to sit and fish. Across the mirror-like surface of the water, you can see some birds shuffling around in the tall grasses on the opposite shore.
into:
set_long("You are standing at the edge of a small pond. "
"A large hollow log looks like a good place to sit and fish. "
"Across the mirror-like surface of the water, "
"you can see some birds shuffling around in the tall grasses on "
"the opposite shore.");
and lots of other really useful things.
You will need Microsoft Access version 2.0 or higher, which runs under Microsoft Windows.
This program is FREE. I am not making money off of it, so you may not either.
You may send a copy to your friends if a) You have not changed any of the program code, forms, or table structures, and b) You include the readme.txt (also unchanged) that comes with it.
This program is considered a wizard tool (Level 500 and above).
"Why?" you might ask. Because as an apprentice, you are supposed to be learning how to code. Depending on this program to create your areas will seriously handicap you in the long run (especially as you try to modify generated code to do really cool things). It is vital that you understand the functions and organization that makes something work and it is way too easy with the C.G. to ignore this lesson.
And yes, even if you remove the /* Core code was created by Jerusulum's Code Generator */ comment, I (and the rest of the Education Staff) will still know you used it. Certain things make the generated code very distinctive.
