To store items on the mud would be called a donation room. There are two in DarkHaven near the healer. Not sure if they are active in a stock SMAUG. There is also clan storerooms, like clan only donation rooms.

Banks. SAMUG doesn't come stock with a bank and you'll need to find a snippet and install it. There are several out there, Samsom at Alsherok.net/afkmud has the basic one, Xerves at Rafermand.net hosts a really nice one with accounts.

oh one problem, it sends this stuff in .c and .h ect... source :(

I am running Windows 2000 and I didn't download the source, I downloaded the binaries and help files... What should I do?

Then there is not a whole lot you can do. I don't believe the donation rooms are working right in stock.

You really should get the source for windoze and Cygwin to compile it. It's not that hard to do really. Then you would be able to add new stuff as you wished.

where, and what specificly? and how to compile? With like Bloodshed c++, or a command line compiler? how?

I made a walkthrough type thing on how to install cygwin here: http://www.gammon.com.au/forum/bbshowpost.php?bbsubject_id=1660 Just make you you get the binutils, gcc, make and crypt packages. Anything else is optional.

To open a clan storeroom you need to create a clan (help makeclan), and make a file called <clanname>.cla.vault, this will store the items in the storeroom. Then add the clanstoreroom flag to the room you want it to be.

I haven't seen the code, but you should have a "clans" subdirectory
