<h1>QCS Described</h1>
<p>The Quick Creation System (or QCS) is a series of commands and
modules that lets you create rooms, objects, exits, and NPCs easily and
quickly. Before the QCS, if you wanted to make an orc, you would edit
the text file by hand, or copy a template file and use an editor to
manually change the lines you needed to modify. This could be a
tiresome process, as the standard editor can be a bit awkward, and
making dozens of objects this way could be real torture for beginners.</p>
<p>The QCS changes all of that. Rather than use an editor to modify
files, the QCS gives you commands that permit you to modify objects on
the fly. This means that orc creation, for example, could involve just
the following simple steps (please note "NPC" is another word for
"Mob"):</p>
<div class="inputcontainer">
<ul class="input">
<li><span class="command">create npc new_orc</span></li>
<li><span class="command">modify npc name orc</span></li>
<li><span class="command">modify orc short a mean-looking orc</span></li>
<li><span class="command">modify orc long A typical orc: nasty,
brutish, and short.</span></li>
<li><span class="command">modify orc race orc</span></li>
</ul>
</div>
<p>And that's it. All your modifications automatically get written to
new_orc.c (usually in your area directory), and you now have an npc you
can add to a room. Adding things to rooms is just as easy. Creating
weapons, armor, and other objects are done the same way. For complete
details and examples, read the
QCS chapters in the Creators Manual. The QCS section starts in chapter
31.</p>
<h1>Example Log</h1>
<p>Below you will find an excerpt from an short building session using
Dead Souls. This should be more or less exactly what you'll see by
entering
the commands hilighted in red.</p>
<hr>
<p>The first thing we need to do is get back to our personal work room.
We can
do this using the <span class="command">home</span> command.</p>
<div class="inputcontainer">

<p>Next, we move east to a sample room that is created automatically
for us.
We'll be experimenting in here.</p>

<h1>Room Creation <a class="backtotop" href="#top">(Back to Top)</a></h1>
<p>This is the standard sample room. We're about to create a new room
to the north of it via the <span class="command">create</span> command.</p>

<p>Now we'll change the short description to avoid confusion between
