In fact I have a Java client.
My protocol is transmitted via sockets, and is composed by a lot of
commands
exchanged between the client and the server (a command looks like
COM:values_separated_by_underscores)

May I know how the code has to look like?
> Not quite reading you here. How are you storing functions in the database?
A friend of mine found on the net a C library which is able to read
scripts
written in a language called lua. Variables can be created in the script
and recuperated in the C++ code of my mud; or variables created in the
C++
code can be recuperated in the lua code and changed. It works for
functions
too (C functions may be called in the lua script, vice versa). But I
find
the library isn't the best thing I can find because the variables and
the
functions have to be static. Moreover the system for instanciating
objects
exists but is very unfriendly. Therefore I intend to stock the compiled
lua
scripts within the database (as the actions monsters have to do).
My teachers finally gave me 2 years for ending the project, so I have
time
for testing everything. I would like to know what ColdC exactly does.
Is it a better alternative to lua (I mean: can I write some scripts for
some objects or monsters, these scripts being able to interact with
other
datas or objects in memory or in the database, store them in the
database,
and execute them?)

In the case of a Hashtable, how can you store 2 identical monsters?
I think that 2 orks have the same server-side models. Is the difference
made
at the client-side refernces? (I take the case where 2 orks are at the
same
location, have the same number of lifepoints...)
