For immortals

                     LETS TRY IT OUT!
                     ================

Ok you are standing in your blank room and thinking what now. Lets try some of the command we learned above. I will use the number '1234' in place of vnum. You of course would substitute your own vnums for that number. In this case you would want the vnum of the room you are linking to. The lines with a * beside them are what you should see on the screen. Do not type those lines.

FINAL NOTE
==========

You have now made a basic room and linked it to another room. This is the basics of building a room. Play with these commands and read the help files. When you feel confident enough with the commands to start building seriously I would like to suggest you map your area out. Either as you build it or before you start. It helps to be able to see on paper what you are doing on the game. When you are describing a room it would be best to imagine you are describing the area to a blind person. You are attempting to make others see with your words what you see with your eyes imagination If you find some area of BASIC ROOM building that was not covered in this could you please email me and let me know.
