|
|
|
|
|
|
[Evennia][homepage] is a modern library for creating [online multiplayer text
|
|
games][wikimudpage] (MUD, MUSH, MUX, MUCK, MOO etc) in pure Python. It
|
|
allows game creators to design and flesh out their ideas with great
|
|
freedom.
|
|
|
|
Evennia does not impose a particular style, genre or game mechanic. Instead it
|
|
solves the boring networking and basic stuff all online games need. It provides
|
|
a framework and tools for you to build the game you want. Coding in Evennia is
|
|
done using normal Python modules imported into the server at runtime.
|
|
|
|
Evennia has [extensive documentation][docs]. It also has a very active community
|
|
with [discussion forums][group] and a [discord server][chat] to help and support you!
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
pip install evennia
|
|
(windows users once: py -m evennia)
|
|
evennia --init mygame
|
|
cd mygame
|
|
evennia migrate
|
|
evennia start / stop / reload
|
|
|
|
See [the full installation instructions][installation] for more help.
|
|
|
|
Next, browse to `http://localhost:4001` or use your third-party mud client to
|
|
connect to to `localhost`, port `4000` to see your working (if empty) game!
|
|
