Ok, I am making new areas for Rom, and wish to totaly re-work the areas, including removing all the old ones except stuff like help, When I do this, I edit the area list to coresapond with the new areas and the removed areas, and then Rom wont fire up
Question about Areas

some of the ones that come with rom have objects
that need to be there, so if you removed areas
like midgaard and whatnot, thats more than likely
why you can't run the rom...
What I ended up doing was just basically using
edit and changing the mobs, objects, etc... to
my liking... therefore not removing any needed
code.

Agreed - both ROM and SMAUG have built-into the server some references to established mobs/rooms/objects.
You can't just delete the lot.
In my SMAUG FAQ I list the ones required for SMAUG, you can probably find them out for ROM by looking in the source.
For example, in merc.h I found these references:
At the very least, I would make sure the above mobs/objects/rooms existed in my areas somewhere.
