Thing

Thing is one of the four basic object types. It is a general-purpose object that can be within another object (it has a location), and can contain other objects (it has contents).

Unlike rooms, players, and exits, the Thing type is not assigned a flag letter. That is, while the flag letter R corresponds to the Room type, the flag letter P corresponds to the Player type, and the flag letter E corresponds to the Exit type, the Thing type has no corresponding letter. The flag letter T is related to the TRACE flag.

Things are created using the @create command.

Examples

> @create MyCode
> say flags(MyCode)
> say type(MyCode)
You say, "THING"
