That may be correct, but "a number-based system" can be beautiful. Any LPC MUD should convince a sceptic that finding all the various objects in the system based on their id (or cloned instance in case of the LPC world) is nice to have. For me it seems visually appealing to have all the various objects floating around in one's mind - with their id tag attached to them directly :) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
