Feeling like you know javascript until you read other peoples code
There are some recurring patterns I see in other peoples' code, though. I just cloned https://github.com/MoreOutput/RockMUD and found lots of abbreviated names as variables, functions and parameters. Such as: e, r, fn, evt, s and so on.. As I have seen these before, I just figured they are very common BUT I can't find anyone on the god damn web who cares to elaborate on what they are.

50 years of text games – 1977: Zork
Let me shamelessly plug a project I'll probably always be poking at: https://github.com/MoreOutput/RockMUD
I mainly played DIKU stuff so it feels a bit like that OOTB, but its very flexible (i hope).

Zarf Updates: A treasury of Zork maps
Thanks, looks like this is the relevant code: https://github.com/historicalsource/zork1/blob/master/1actio...
As I understand it, the thief doesn’t take room exits, but rather warps through the rooms sequentially in the order they’re listed in the code, skipping any that are sacred or non-land.

I am writing an interactive fiction builder in C#. I decided to put it to the test by recreating Zork 1
Indeed I made an assumption without looking into it first. However, I did just find some Zork 1 source code on Github and it doesn't seem that I was too far off. Take this file for example which appears to largely confirm my statement of "likely all authored/coded screen by screen and command by command". You can essentially see how they're coding each action and result on a case-by-case basis. I am not saying that's bad or anything. I have a substantial advantage over their 40-year-old technology and resources, but it does seem I was right about how early text-based adventures were developed.

In the original Planetfall, is the lantern actually coded to work properly?
Compared to the lamp in Zork 1 for example -- it sets the LIGHT/LAMP-ON bit (along with the candles, matches, torch, etc. )
What are some alternatives?
When comparing RockMUD and zork1 you can also consider the following projects:
ranviermud - A node.js based MUD game engine
cyo - Simple HTML Storytelling Engine
encrusted - A z-machine (interpreter) for text adventure games like Zork
inform - The core software distribution for the Inform 7 programming language.
mud-eventemitter
lectrote - The IF interpreter in an Electron shell
