Marking

Description

A methodical individual will want to have some way of marking rooms as having been dealt with. Maybe you're clearing rooms out of zombies, in which case you want to mark rooms that have been processed. Maybe you are scavenging, and you want to mark rooms that have been looted. The mark command allows you to mark a room with either a public or secret symbol provided you have an appropriate writing implement to hand (such as chalk or a marker pen).

Be warned that marks are not secure - people can change any mark they can see, and also remove marks too. Do not rely on them in their entirety for organising your tasks.
