Start with the basics, because muds get very complicated.
You can't expect to make one without a lot of experience it a broad range of coding topics.

I already post this elsewhere, I have coded (and still coding) a skeleton for the different classes and functions.

It is based off this extremely simpliefied version of it.

If you want to help, send me a PM and we can talk about it.
