Multiple world windows

I was wondering, is there a way to open multiple instances of the same world, in the same MUSHclient window, rather than opening another MUSHclient program? I could think I remember clicking on the world again, and it would open a new window in the client, but it doesn't do that anymore.

Yes, Window > New Window.

Yes, but that just is a copy of the other window. I want a seperate window where I can type different commands, for example, playing on two characters on the same world.

No you can't, because if you have two different sessions (eg. two characters) and then save one, and then the other, the second would overwrite the first.

I suggest opening a new world and use the "base on existing world" question to clone the first world.

You can go further and use plugins to share common data, or the <include> directive in the world XML to share common parts of the world data (up to a point, anyway). I think Poremenos has been doing some work on that.

Yeah, thats what I've been doing. Eh, I guess I'll have to do it that way.
