Description

When CocoMUD runs, it assumes its settings and worlds are located at the root. Safe assertion in most cases, but it might be a nice feature to add a support for a command-line argument, allowing to specify the CocoMUD's root. It would allow to run a build version with static configuration, for instance.

Proposed API:

cocomud.exe --root-dir=<other path leading to CocoMUD's configuration>

Most information are not sensitive to the location where they are. The translations, however, should remain the same no matter the specified root directory. This constraint would prevent unpredictable code-breaking on translation changes.

The option was added in commit a88028b6a117bf9f665fa82820e67a7f7613d267. It allowed to spy a bug in the triggers, now fixed. I'm using this option first-hand to see if the old configuration breaks with the new version of CocoMUD, so hopefully, I should see early bugs with this. Not closing this issue just yet, waiting for feedback.

Closing this, I'm running on custom configuration since this issue was implemented and haven't spotted a bug yet in aliases, macros or triggers.
