Items

Starting Item

All accounts get one special object to start with known as the starter Item. It is intended to extend the functionality of what a player would have as well as to encourage learning of how NOW operates and enhance one's skills.

Buying

Anyone with sufficient funds can purchase items from others who can vend them.

Crafting

To create specific types of items, you must be at least become a crafter.

Rooms

Creating a room

To create simple room, you must be at least become a builder. In an existing room that the builder is allowed to build from, simply choose a direction and name for the new room.

Example: north/new Cave Entrance

Exits

Orange Exits into other rooms can be added leaving your new room

Subdividing a room

Determine the size of room and number of subdivisions you will need, mark the squares you don't want anyone entering, or carve into the areas you do want used by giving each square a name and description.

Creating Places / Hangouts

A place is series of rooms that will have a particular theme or ambiance. Since building is managed by builder group the current process is to provide a map using Trizport - http://trizbort.genstein.net/#download of what you'd like added and submit it in the BuildMap folder - https://github.com/Pinacolada64/NOW/tree/master/world/buildmaps and make sure the file begins with sug_

Sug will inform the builders of your suggested place. In addition if you'd like to add meta-tag information make sure the builder is aware either by submitting a text file underneath or speaking with a builder. Some example might be family_friendly, flight_only, ... neighborhood and other examples. If the place is accepted you will be informed through an online mail and the name will be changed upon completion.
