/**
 * Main server script for Discord mudlib.  Most of the code is still messy from
 * Node Knockout.
 *
 * This file is in charge of all the nitty gritty bits of loading all the 
 * JavaScript files required to get a World instance running, then opening a
 * socket and redirecting input to a Player object within the world.
 *
 * Most of the file loading logistics lives in the World class, which handles
 * determining where to pull files from based on configuration options and 
 * set rules.
