I am having an issue with MegaMud 1.03u, in that it isn't correctly calculating my item weights. I have the box checked to not pick up cash to make me heavy, but it picks up just enough to get me to 67% (and heavy). I tried changing the item weight of something I was carrying to make up for the difference, but it doesn't seem to use that data to recalculate. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Check that mega knows the correct weights for your items you are carrying.

I stripped myself of all gear, so I had 0 encumberance. Mega still picked up enough coins to put me at 67% (6030/9000). This problem only seems to affect the HO warrior. Other guys don't have the problem.

Hmm that is weird, what about loyal items? Mega does use item weights to keep track, I wonder if it tries to calculate from str or some bullshit.

Speaking of scripting programs, would anyone here know how to get my hands on Synterm? It was the "pre Megamud" client of choice for a lot of people.

My daughter seems to want to try MajorMUD out so I set up a board and I'm looking for something that would hit the middle ground between PuTTY and MegaMud, full automation is something I'm specifically looking for the client to not have, just small conveniences like auto attack and auto collect money.

I know I can just turn those options off on MegaMud, but I'm trying to at least get her started on something where those options don't exist. :-)

There is this, which I've used before: https://sourceforge.net/projects/syncterm/

I had actually thought about throwing "Synterm (not Syncterm)" in the other post :lol:
She's on Syncterm now, would like to move to Synterm.

Half my goto's dont work in this. (MegaMud)

Try to use the ones from http://www.megamud.net/paths.html as well ..

Black Fortress Loop .. takes me to the Mansion in the slums and loops me.

I had three loop me in the Fungus Forest..

If I could find a place that shows me the paths or even the layout -the ANSI World map kinda helps..(that way I can see ok its buy the sewers refrence map but most maps dont show you -- this path goes to the black fort..

I quit in like 96

don't know my way anywhere anymore lol
