# Lima / Lima Mudlib

> slug: `lima` · browser status: `playable` · native port: `40212`

The maintained LIMA mudlib (limalib/lima, limamudlib.dev) -- an English-language, developer-facing framework built to demonstrate what a modern LPC mudlib looks like, quite unlike the classic Chinese wuxia lineages that make up most of this collection. Rather than registering one verb per add_action, Lima understands full natural-language sentences ('take the red potion from the box'), secures files and commands through a capability-based system of privileges/domains/protections instead of the traditional uid/root model, and gives every wizard a Unix-like shell (variables, pipes, globbing) rather than a fixed command table. New characters begin in the Grand Hall, a wizards' meeting room with polished floorboards and rough-hewn beams, flanked by a sulfurous northwest passage, a passage to the south that smells like something recently died, and an incongruous elevator door to the west; a glowing portal leads to the separate mortal starting area. Bundled demo content includes a nine-room 'Sandy Beach' pirate treasure-hunting puzzle (explicitly marked by its own author as not meant for a real, live mud) and optional contributed modules for bulletin boards, marriage, and in-room object creation. New characters are granted wizard powers automatically (AUTO_WIZ), the upstream project's own default for a framework meant to be explored and extended, not played as a finished game.

## Run natively with FluffOS

1. Build a current FluffOS driver from https://github.com/fluffos/fluffos
   (native `build` / `build-debug`; see that repo's docs).
2. Download and unzip `lima.zip` from the URL above (or clone
   `https://github.com/fluffos/mudlibs` and use `libs/lima/`).
3. From the unzipped lib directory, ensure `config.fluffos` points
   `mudlib directory` at this tree (the checked-in file may contain a
   maintainer-local absolute path — edit it to your extract path).
4. Start the driver:

```bash
/path/to/fluffos/build/src/driver config.fluffos
```

5. Connect a UTF-8 MUD client to `127.0.0.1:40212`.

- Admin / wizard login: `fluffos` / `Mud@2026`
- If you host this on a public network, change the published default
  admin password before opening the port.
