Tunability

Richard Bartle argues text-based online games are more tunable than graphically based games: "Minor changes don't mean major down-time."

This page has been set up for discussion of how we can keep FaerieMUD tunable.

• The Metaclass system should help keep FaerieMUD tunable by allowing changes to be made without shutting down the servers.
• The idea of keeping as much as possible in databases rather than scripts and programs should help as well.
