Hey guys, I need some help with making new objects:

I am trying to make a chest in a new room, but why the file with the new area does not save the objects! Am I missing something?
This is what I am doing:

You need to install resets in the area. Once upon a time the commands were instaroom, instazone, etc. but those might have changed since.

okay, now I am using, after all this stuff, this lines:

aassign file.are
bestowarea self file.are

(...)

instazone
savearea
aasign none
foldarea file.are
foldarea file.are
shutdown mud now

But I am putting some equipment in the chest. Horever, only the last one remains when I restart the mud. Why?
How can I save everything inside the chest?

Why are you restarting the MUD?

What are the vnums of the objects you are putting in the room, and what is the vnum range of that area?
