Workshop: Default-game whitepage

Introduction
============

This is an initiative to create a "base" game system to be shipped with
Evennia in a "contrib" folder. The game is an independent
re-implementation of the basic stuff of the
`SMAUG <http://www.smaug.org>`_ system. No code from the original will
be used, and no licensed content will be included in the release. For
easy testing of content, rcaskey's SMAUG importer will be used.

TODO, first prototype
=====================

The first stage serves to establish a prototype implementation -
something that shows the parts hanging together, but with only a subset
of the functionality.

Create custom `TypeClasses <Objects.html>`_ supporting the SMAUG system:

-  Object->!SmaugObject->!SmaugBeing->!SmaugCharacter,Character
-  Object->!SmaugObject->!SmaugBeing->!SmaugMob-> ...
-  Object->!SmaugObject->!SmaugThing-> ...

Create limited subclasses or attributes on objects

-  Limited classes/races (1-2?)
-  Skills (<lvl 5?) - not too many!

Behind-the-scenes SMAUG engine

-  Contest resolution
-  Mobs moving around, "AI"
-  Base combat system

Import of small data set, testing.
