There are workarounds, of course - now that I know what I'm missing, it's perfectly possible to implement it in most anything! Though, why bother, if there are existing systems that already implement it :)
(The other important issue is providing prototypal, dynamic inheritance (like in Self, Io, JS, and ofc LPC). Finally, object persistence - that's something that I didn't consider much until now, but other threads here about MOOs also opened my eyes. Not having to worry about server restarts might be a good thing... I think with these 3 things taken care of you'll get pretty close (maybe even a bit better) to the LPMUD environment.)
