Updated To Do List and Bug Fix

We have updated the todo list under the Editor section of the site. There is now a more complete list which should help you create a MUD with less hassle.

*BUG FIX* - There was a bug reported that caused exits to get added incorrectly to rooms. In order to fix this bug, all exits were deleted. To add your exits back, simply walk through your MUD using the directional buttons under the map section. The process should take between 15-20 minutes for every 100 rooms in your MUD, we apologize for the inconvenience. Keep in mind, you may report any bugs you come across by sending an email to info@mudmaker.com.
