What is the most effective way to backup your MUD?
I finally installed an OLC program in my mud. So, in order to make sure I didn't lose my stuff, I just made a copy of the entire Rom24 folder and called it a backup. Then I tried to add colour and everything was messed up. So I deleted the Rom24 folder, renamed the backup to Rom24, tried to the run the MUD, and it wouldn't connect. ./startup would work the same as always, but the mushclient wouldn't connect to the MUD. So what is the best way to backup the MUD before making changes?
