RoT MUD v1.4 with OLC 2023

File: rot1.4wolc2023.tgz

Here is a version of the RoT MUD source code, version 1.4 with OLC, that compiles for me on Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS.

It seems MUD resources are growing very thin these days. I’d like to remedy that if possible. If my brain doesn’t find something else to fixate on for a while.

I’ve included a README file in the main folder that outlines the couple of minor changes I made.

Edit 6-28-2026: I was playing with this a bit again, you should do a grep -R ‘rot.who’ and ‘rotwho.tmp’ in the code and change the few places it writes this file to. The ‘webserver’ does not work for me either way, but this at least prevents it from seg-faulting. If you do not modify the default startup file, you’ll need to apt-get install csh to run it. You should also place your compiled rot binary in the areas/ folder to run it.
