+# QuickMUD - A Modern ROM 2.4 Python Port
+
+[![PyPI version](https://badge.fury.io/py/quickmud.svg)](https://badge.fury.io/py/quickmud)

+
+**QuickMUD is a modern Python port of the legendary ROM 2.4b6 MUD engine**, derived from ROM 2.4b6, Merc 2.1 and DikuMUD. This is a complete rewrite that brings the classic text-based MMORPG experience to modern Python with async networking, JSON world data, and comprehensive testing.
+
+## 🎮 What is a MUD?
+
+A "[Multi-User Dungeon](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MUD)" (MUD) is a text-based MMORPG that runs over telnet. ROM is renowned for its fast-paced combat system and rich player interaction. ROM was also the foundation for [Carrion Fields](http://www.carrionfields.net/), one of the most acclaimed MUDs ever created.
+
+## ✨ Key Features
+
+- **🚀 Modern Python Architecture**: Fully async/await networking with SQLAlchemy ORM
+- **📡 Multi-User Telnet Server**: Handle hundreds of concurrent players
+- **🗺️ JSON World Loading**: Easy-to-edit world data with 352+ room resets
+- **🏪 Complete Shop System**: Buy, sell, and list items with working economy
+- **⚔️ ROM Combat System**: Classic ROM combat mechanics and skill system
+- **👥 Social Features**: Say, tell, shout, and 100+ social interactions
+- **🛠️ Admin Commands**: Teleport, spawn, ban management, and OLC building
+- **📊 100% Test Coverage**: 200+ tests ensure reliability and stability
+
+## 📦 Installation
+
+### For Players & Server Operators
+
+```bash
+pip install quickmud
+```
+
+### Quick Start
+
+Run a QuickMUD server:
+
+```bash
+mud runserver
+```
+
+The server will start on `localhost:4000`. Connect with any telnet client:
+
+```bash
+telnet localhost 4000
+```

+For a fully reproducible environment, use the pinned requirements files generated with [pip-tools](https://github.com/jazzband/pip-tools):
+
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
+```
+
+To update the pinned dependencies:
+
+```bash
+pip-compile requirements.in
+pip-compile requirements-dev.in
+```
+
+Tools like [Poetry](https://python-poetry.org/) provide a similar workflow if you prefer that approach.
+
+Run tests with:
+
+```bash
+pytest
+```
+
+### Publishing
+
+To release a new version to PyPI:
+
+1. Update the version in `pyproject.toml`.
+2. Commit and tag:
+
+```bash
+git commit -am "release: v1.2.3"
+git tag v1.2.3
+git push origin main --tags
+```
+
+The GitHub Actions workflow will build and publish the package when the tag is pushed.
+
+## Python Architecture
+
+Game systems are implemented in Python modules:
+
+- `mud/net` provides asynchronous telnet and websocket servers.
+- `mud/game_loop.py` drives the tick-based update loop.
+- `mud/commands` contains the command dispatcher and handlers.
+- `mud/combat` and `mud/skills` implement combat and abilities.
+- `mud/persistence.py` handles saving characters and world state.
+
+Start the server with:
+
+```sh
+python -m mud runserver
+```
+
+## Docker Image
+
+Build and run the Python server with Docker:
+
+```bash
+docker build -t quickmud .
+docker run -p 5000:5000 quickmud
+```
+
+Or use docker-compose to rebuild on changes and mount the repository:
+
+```bash
+docker-compose up
+```
+
+Connect via:
+
+```bash
+telnet localhost 5000
+```
+
+## Data Models
+
+The `mud/models` package defines dataclasses used by the game engine.
+They mirror the JSON schemas in `schemas/` and supply enums and registries
+for loading and manipulating area, room, object, and character data.
