Repeating vnums between rooms/npcs/objects

[Deleted user]

I've noticed that vnums are used to uniquely identify the listed items (rooms, objs, mobs). For instance exits refer to which rooms they lead to via vnum. However rooms, objs and mobs all start their vnums from 3000 leading to the numbers not being unique.

In preparing an Evennia batchcode generator I've leaned towards r3000 for rooms, o3000 for objects and m3000 for mobs but it might also be more consistent to organise not doubling up numbers.

This is how ROM represents vnums, with context allowing one to determine which is used. I am reluctant to change this.
