#codebased origin

plaintext:

[flag image one id: a six-striped flag. the colors go in order from an earthy green, to a darker green of a similar hue, to a thinner line of a very dark green of a similar hue, to a similarly thinner green-tinted sand color, to a desaturated teal, to a slightly greener seafoam. end id.]

[flag image two id: the same flag, but using the common "headmate role" template many role flags use. the colors are the same, but the two earthy greens are assembled on the top and bottom left corners, while the teal and seafoam are assembled on the top left and top right corner respectively. in the center of the flag is a line, with a diamond in the direct center. half of the line and diamond is the darkest green, while the other half is the green-tinted sand color. end id.]

[flag image three id: same flag as the first flag, a six-striped flag. the colors go in order from an earthy green, to a darker green of a similar hue, to a thinner line of a very dark green of a similar hue, to a similarly thinner green-tinted sand color, to a desaturated teal, to a slightly greener seafoam. end id.]

coder. this is a recoin, term originally by the cadaver system.

important: no trigger warnings apply. plaintext is under the cut (you are here). flag co-created by k9coded.

definition: a coder is a headmate that works with the "code" of a codebased system. this could involve "coding in" new alters or changing the "map" / setting / layout of the innerworld, or anything else to do with the code that the system runs on. this term, despite the usage of the term "programming" being common in ramcoa / oea systems, has nothing to do with that kind of programming, hence the word "coding" and not "programming" specifically being used as a distinction.

extra. misc: the original term was coined by the cadaver system here: [link: https://www.tumblr.com/radiomogai/715701173843378176 end link.] but due to the age and lack of info i am recoining it with a longer definition and a flag. i then tagged radiomogai, system-term-archive, thenewmogaiarchive-plural, and plurchive. let me know if you'd prefer i don't tag you in the future!
