If you're not using standard Graal Q menu then the minus signs and slashes are unnecessary for weapons.

Why do people use +Something in mudlibs a lot of the time?

Alot of the time? It's basicly used by a few or some people to organize

Or what Napo said in the post below this post.

As Inverness said, things like slashes, plus and minus shouldn't be in the wnpc name or in any other object names. ^_^

Probably just to complicate things. It's unnecessary.

Because Graal Kingdoms uses + for weapon scripts for the mud.

Thats silly. I keep my weapons nicely named on Val Dev, here is the array of weapons added on login:

PHP Code:


			
  // Names of weapons to add to player on login.
  // Automatic: ObjectTypes, System, -ScriptedRC
  this.addweapons = {
    // Systems
    "SysChat",
    "SysNick",
    "SysTileDefs",
    "SysTime",
    "SysMsg",
    "SysOutfit",
    "SysVision",
    "SysBoard",
    // Mud
    "MudControl",
    "MudWeapons",
    // GUIs
    "GuiCharacterSelect",
    "GuiProfiles",
    "GuiInfoDialog",
    "GuiInventory",
    "GuiHud",
    "GuiNpcDialog",
    "GuiChatHistory",
    "GuiInputDialog",
    "GuiBook",
    "GuiBoard",
    "GuiPlaylist",
    "GuiLevelDesc",
    // Other
    "DialogControl",
    "Console",
  };
