Hey Al,

I did look over the wiki, but couldn't see anything specifically for allowing you to make a door server - I can see you can enable an RLOGIN server, but I assumed I could like a server to a specific command or door game, however I couldn't see how from the wiki.

I've written a small python bridge that accepts RLOGIN and spawns something of my choosing tho, so I have sort of achieved this outside of Mystic, but I would like to know if it is possible with Mystic.

... They say there's always one weirdo on the bus, but I couldn't find them!
