'''Thing''' is one of the four basic [[object]] [[type]]s. 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 [[room]]s, [[player]]s, and [[exit]]s, 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]].
