Evennia offers a range of [default commands](Component/Default-Command-Help) for [creating objects and rooms

specific, restricted things and will thus not offer as much flexibility to experiment (for an

To overcome this, Evennia offers [batch processors](Component/Batch-Processors) that work as input-files

This is a very powerful tool. It allows you to craft Python files to act as blueprints of your
entire game world. These files have access to use Evennia's Python API directly. Batchcode allows
for easy editing and creation in whatever text editor you prefer, avoiding having to manually build
the world line-by-line inside the game.
> Important warning: `@batchcode`'s power is only rivaled by the `@py` command. Batchcode is so

not add more features to your game by trying other tutorials: [Add weather to your world](Weather-
