Since 2000 The Builder Academy has been training new builders and
developing the CircleMUD codebase, Oasis OLC, and trigedit. After years
of stock CircleMUD stagnation TBA offered to take over stock CircleMUD
development several times. TBA unofficially released CircleMUD 3.5 in
2006 and later released the codebase under the name tbaMUD. TbaMUD is
holding true to the original CircleMUD vision with a few additions. The
largest difference is the inclusion of Oasis OLC, trigedit, in-depth
tutorials, help files, and examples. TBA will continue development and is
always open to feedback and recommendations from the MUDding community.
TBA is foremost a MUDding resource with the goal of improving the MUDding
community.
The tbaMUD vision:
TbaMUD's vision is to provide the MUDding community a stable and functional
codebase that includes an in-depth World and help files that makes it ready to
be molded into a custom MUD by its coders and builders. We also provide
multiple resources to allow for feedback, contribution, and the sharing of
ideas within the MUDding community to ensure constant development and
improvements.
TbaMUD is highly developed from the programming side, but highly UNdeveloped
on the game-playing side. So, if you're looking for a huge MUD with billions of
spells, skills, classes, and races, tbaMUD will disappoint you. TbaMUD still
has only the 4 original Diku classes, the original spells, and the original
skills. On the other hand, if you're looking for a highly stable, developed,
organized, and well documented "blank slate" MUD on which you can put your OWN
ideas for spells, skills, and classes, then tbaMUD is what what you are looking
for.

The most challenging aspect of running a mud is finding good builders. You
will hear this from the admin of every MUD that has ever been. In the past it
has always been up to each individual MUD to find and attempt to train their
own builders. This works, but I think the MUDding community can come up with
something better. That is why I created The Builder Academy.
TBA has been open to anyone interested in learning or teaching how to build
using Oasis OLC with dg scripts since 2000. TBA is now being used to develop
the tbaMUD codebase (formerly known as CircleMUD).
TBA has trained thousands of builders and has an extensive tutorial and help
file system. No pressure, no deadline, just come learn, teach, or help develop
tbaMUD. Give back to the community we have all taken so much from. TBA is a
MUDding resource. Please take advantage of it so we can improve all of the
MUDding community.
TBA can even be used by other MUDs as a builder's port. Just send us your
newbie builders. We will teach them and then you can have them back with the
zones they built.
We are always open to anyone willing to learn, teach, or help develop tbaMUD.
