Adding Colours and Spaceships to SMAUG

I was just wondering, that since SWR is just a modded SMAUG, would it be possible to take the coding for the colors and Spaceships and just insert that into the smaug coding? If that is, could someome tell me what parts of the code I would need to do this and how I would need to change the Smaug.exe file? (would It just be a recompile?)

thanks

As far as ships go save your self the head ache and just look at swrs ship system and code your own ship code, it's alot easier then going back and forth figuring out shit you missed. I'v done it both ways, and it's simply easier making your own.

can you give me some pointers on that, I'm kind of a newbie to doing that coding

To change smaug.exe, just compile. If you're using Windows, you need Cygwin or a Windows compiler.

Making your own space system isn't really easy. You'd start off making the ship/space structures, and reading/writing to them.

..wow... Uh yeah, forget that ship thing for now, maybe when I get better at this. But how can I make Smaug have the colouring like SWR? Is it that MXPcolouring or something?
By colouring I mean like, where you can just type &G after something and make it coloured like "oset 102 short the &ONostos Sword&G"

The way to fix that is in the Smaug FAQ/Document. Check that, it'll answer your question.
