There is a snippet which puts something in each pfile.  It's not a
listing of the vnums per se but rather some algorithm that the mud
translates.
This snip used to be on pdragon.inetsolve.com, but that site is gone.
I'll search in my archive to see if I have it and I'll send it to you if
I can find it.

Subject: Percentage explored

I remember hearing about a concept from a friend of mine
for a mud, which he saw actually in use.

In the score, there would be a line that says how much of
the total rooms you've been to.

Such as "You've explored 33% of the world thus far."

I was thinking about how to implement something like that,
but the only methods I can think of would be totally
massive.  Like adding a file for each pfile with a listing
of every room vnum they've been in, and comparing it to the
vnums in the area files.  Either way, it seems like it
would take up a huge amount of space however you did it.

Anyone have any general ideas on how to do it effectively? 
It would have to remember which rooms in particular you've
been to...
