Edit zones

Edit zone settings or room reset commands with the admin console, then commit each draft and save the zone file that stores it.

Use webOLC in the admin console to adjust a zone's reset timer and boundaries or to edit the reset commands for a specific room. Zone-wide settings and per-room reset commands have separate editor views so two builders don't step on each other.

  • Sign in at /admin/ with a character assigned to build in the zone.
  • Open the zone from Zones & rooms.

The zones list for the synthetic world used by the admin console preview.

  1. Open the zone and choose Edit zone.
  2. Change its name, lifespan (minutes between resets), reset mode, or top room vnum. The full-zone reset timeline on this page is read-only.

Zone name, lifespan, reset mode, and top-room controls in the zone editor.

  1. Choose Commit draft, then Save zone file.
  1. Open the room from its zone page.
  2. Choose Edit room reset commands.
  3. Add, reorder, or edit the mob, object, and door reset commands in that room's timeline, then choose Commit draft.
  4. Choose Save zone file. The page also displays the whole-zone timeline for context; that timeline stays read-only here.

The zone detail view shows your committed settings, and saving the file clears the zone from Workshop & saves.

  • The room or zone is claimed. Another builder has a draft open; wait for them to finish.
  • Save zone file is disabled. Commit your draft first.
  • The reset timeline is read-only. You're looking at the whole-zone overview; open the specific room and choose Edit room reset commands.
