Internet (Programming)

The HellMOO internet (aka The Matrix, Cyberspace) allows you to build hacking-oriented puzzles and provide content that could not otherwise exist in the 'real world'. The internet uses different room types, exits, and areas that the normal HellMOO world as behaves differently in many ways. The key thing to know about cyberspace is that nothing works properly there for players (or admins) unless they have jacked in through a cyberdeck, and hence their .cyberdeck property points to a valid object descended from $cyberdeck.

Matrix Objects

The following objects are very important to the HellMOO intarwebs:

Object Number	Name	Description
#1834	Generic Cyberdeck	The parent object for all cyberdecks.
#3815	Cyberdeck Control Feature	This object holds all the verbs players can use to manipulate their cyberdecks when they are jacked in.
