This should be the first stap of the actual building of an area.
Rooms are probably the most important things in an area.
To make a new room, type 'redit create <vnum>'.
To edit the room you are in, type 'redit'.
To edit an existing room somewhere else, type 'redit <vnum>'.
Yeah, this is easy you will think now… Well, it is!
To see the room as it is and to see what you can change in a room, just type
'show' or press return with an empty line. You will want to leave
redit too after you're tired of trying to come up with new places, do this
by typing 'done'. It IS that hard!

This should be pretty obvious by itself (like the rest isn't), so type
'name <room name>' and that should be over.
Try not to give a room name flashing colors or a background color or
something like that, we're making a place for people to walk around in
without getting blinded.

The most important thing about a room is probably the room description. There are few real rules about room descriptions, there are however some guidelines to make a room look good. - DON'T MAKE ROOMS LOOK LIKE THIS! It may cause severe eye damage and is just annoying. - Avoid room descriptions of only one or two lines. - Try to avoid the use the word 'you' or 'your' in room descriptions. - Try not to type things that happen in a room. You can type something like 'The screams of tortured victims echo through the room.' But something like 'You trip over some dead corpses and fall flat on your face!' isn't really good, because if you've been standing in the room for an hour and look then, this doesn't look real. There are exeptions to all of this, but then again, these are not rules, just some guidelines. To edit the room description you must of course be in redit first, then type 'desc'. You will now be in the description editor. As you see, this is similar to (the same as) note writing. Whatever you write will now be added to the room description. Don't worry about how long the line is or how the text looks yet, you can format the room later. After you have typed the description, you can change the description in the editor too, you don't have to write the room description all over because of one spelling error. Type '.h' to see a list of options, use these things, they are very useful. After you have written a room description, you should format the room description. To do this, type '.f' in the description editor, or type 'format' in redit. Format does a wordwrap on the room, giving all the lines almost the same lenght so it looks better.
