16 colour, 256 colour and 24-bit RGB ANSI, rendered properly. Scrolling stays smooth when the screen fills with combat spam.
Encodings UTF-8, ASCII, ISO-8859-1
Telnet TTYPE, NAWS, MCCP2, MSSP, ZMP
More than 15 themes and 20 monospace fonts, set globally or per world. Dynamic Type scales the lot.
Text-to-speech, local echo, command history
Triggers match plain text, wildcards or full regular expressions, then answer with a command, a highlight, a sound or a notification. Aliases shorten long command chains, gags drop the noise, tickers repeat on a timer.
Captures feed back into the response with %1. Read the automation guide.
A radial pad puts up to eight commands under your thumb for movement and combat. Park it left, park it right, or turn it off. On iPad, drive the whole thing from a keyboard.
Labelled throughout for screen reader users, with Dynamic Type across the interface and Reduce Motion honoured. Text-to-speech reads incoming output aloud.
Save any host and port, connect to four at once, and give each world its own theme, font and automation rules. Auto-login credentials sit in the iOS Keychain, and SSL/TLS is used wherever the server offers it.
Stays connected in the background. How that works.
No analytics, no advertising SDKs, no third-party servers. MUDBasher talks to the MUDs you point it at and to nothing else.
Worlds, notes, triggers and session logs are stored locally. There is no account and no cloud sync.
Auto-login credentials go to the iOS Keychain, never to us, and never into an iCloud backup.
The app tracks nothing. This site does use Google Analytics. Read the policy.
The story of MUDBasher is the story of MUDRammer, an app built in 2012 and named after a friend's ridiculous character name, which brought a lot of people a lot of joy for years.
When it could no longer keep up with modern iOS, the choice was to let it fade or start again. It was rebuilt from the ground up, in Swift, for iOS 17 and later. What made MUDRammer worth using is still here. The parts Apple broke are not.
Free on the App Store, for iPhone and iPad. No in-app purchases, no ads, no account.
