"How long, oh Lord, how long shall the wicked endure?"

: Relevant Command: '''aedit'''
: The Aedit commands invokes the area editor. If you are in an existing area,
: aedit will bring up the area options. If you want to create a new area, the
: syntax is: aedit create

: '''OPTIONS:''' Once in aedit, you can set the following options:

: '''Important note:''' After using the NAME, FILE, VNUM, LNUM, or HNUM commands below, always
: asave list. If you don't, sometimes the alist doesn't match the reality of what
: areas we have, and madness ensues.

: '''Importnat note about linking areas:''' Use the redit 'room' command to make exits to
: rooms from different areas. Otherwise, the exits are likely to randomly disappear.

Name:
: Syntax: name [area name]
: Name sets the name of your area, as it appears in alist.

File:
: Syntax: file [file name]
: File sets the name of your area's file. The name should be relatively short,
: and easy to remember, as this has to be copied by long-suffering imps whenever
: you want the area updated. If you had an area called "Dungeon of Doom", naming
: it "bunnyrabbit.are" would evoke hate, not love, in the minds of your superiors.

Vnums:
: The vnums options determines what vnums are used by your area. Please ask for
: vnums to be alloted to you before you just go off and claim a blank block --
: Locke's arguments on property do not apply here. There are two ways to set the
: vnums of your area. In aedit:
: (1) Use the VNUM command:
: Syntax: vnum [lowest vnum] [upper vnum]
: (2) Use the UNUM and LNUM commands
: Syntax: lnum [lowest vnum]
: Syntax: unum [upper vnum]

: '''Important note:''' After using the NAME, FILE, VNUM, LNUM, or HNUM commands above, always
: asave list. If you don't, sometimes the alist doesn't match the reality of what
: areas we have, and madness ensues.

Age:
: Syntax: age [number]
: The age command has no actual use. It's just a number you set to get a vaguely
: satisfied feeling.

Players:
: This just tells you how many players are in your area. It's odd this shows up on
: aedit. Back where I come from, we use the 'where' command.

Security:
: You will normally have no reason to change this field. Every character has a
: 'security', which can be altered via SET. If their security is not high enough
: (and they aren't tagged as a builder), they can't access OLC to change your
: area. 9 is the highest security goes, and usually, anyone on dev will have
: security 9. To change the security, for whatever reason:
: Syntax: security [number]

Builders:
: Syntax: builders [name]
: The builders are the people who have access to change your area via olc. Again,
: you'll normally not have to access this feature very often.

Credits:
: Syntax: credits [credit information]
: This sets the credits line for your area. The credits line is what is seen when
: people type "areas". In general, the format of the credits line has to be spaced
: just right, so it matches what the other areas look like. If it doesn't match,
: the punishment is summary denial. In particular, it generally looks something
: like:

[ 1 20] Serachel Clockmaker's Mansion

Flags:
: The area flags do nothing. In time, perhaps they will, but not right now.
: Asking about it gets you nowhere.

Flags2:
: ''invis'' - determines whether or not your area appears on the list shown by the "areas" command.
: Other flags may or may not do things. Don't mess with them.

Weather:
: The following items affect the weather of your area:

: Precipitation
: Syntax: precip [flag]. Possible flags are barren, arid, average, wet, or monsoon.

: Temperature
: Syntax: temp [flag]. Possible flags are blisterting, hot, temperate, cool, frigid.

: Wind Magnitude
: Syntax: windmag [flag]. Possible flags are gale, windy, normal, still, doldrums

: Wind Direction: Syntax: winddir [direction]

: Geography: Syntax: geography [flag]. Possible flags are ocean, coastal,
: mountainous, plains, lowlands, desert, river.

Herbs:
: Syntax: herbs 'name of herb'
: **Be sure to add those single quotes, or it'll just ask you "huh?"**

Founts:

: Order and positive are from 2 to -2, with higher integers being associated with more ordered and more positive energy. Frequency is as follows:

always (highest frequency/numbers)
often
occasionally
rarely
never (no founts in the area)
default (occasionally)

: particular room in redit.
