I've played muds with the afterlife snippet, I've played some hardcore one where you have to go fetch (god forbid you die in a tough zone) but I've always thought it would be interesting if your stuff were sorta scattered across the zone. I can't come up with a sci-fi justification just yet, but I will.
This is what I have... it works great AS LONG AS I DONT DO ANY ROOM FLAG CHECKS!
Code:
#include "oasis.h" // some funky zone table calls so I'm dipping in oasis
/* spread out character's equipment across zone - Zi */
if (IS_NPC(ch)) {
/* transfer character's equipment to the corpse for mobs standard TBA stuff*/
int i;
for (i = 0; i < NUM_WEARS; i++)
if (GET_EQ(ch, i)) {
remove_otrigger(GET_EQ(ch, i), ch);
obj_to_obj(unequip_char(ch, i), corpse);
}
} else { // here were it start!
int i, top, bot, z, sendit; // use these vars
z = world[IN_ROOM(ch)].zone; // what zone is the player in?
bot = zone_table[z].bot; // get the bottom number
top = zone_table[z].top; // get the top number
for (i = 0; i < NUM_WEARS; i++) // for everything equipped on the player
if (GET_EQ(ch, i)) { //grab first piece of eq
do {
sendit = rand_number(bot, top); //grab a rando number in that zone
} while (ROOM_FLAGGED(sendit, ROOM_PRIVATE) || ROOM_FLAGGED(sendit, ROOM_DEATH) ||
ROOM_FLAGGED(sendit, ROOM_GODROOM) || real_room(sendit) == NOWHERE );
//if these conditions ^ are TRUE then go back and calculate... real_room is wrong?
obj_to_room(unequip_char(ch, i), real_room(sendit)); //uneq the eq from char and send it to the random room's real number
} // until all player eq is gone
} // that's a wrap
So where have I gone wrong? When I take out the do/while it works great, but sends eq to NOWHERE... I stole those flag checks from spell_teleport - same idea!
EDIT: OHHHHHH OKAY SO sorry, caps lock was on. Okay, so I took out the room flags and just did the nowhere check (ensuring that transferring that piece of equipment would go to a valid room) and lo and behold, it worked. In fact, I have a test zone with just 3 rooms and a lil test code spams all the attempts at finding a valid room...
SO - this has everything to do with room flags. I'm off to grep things! Stay tuned!
DOUBLE EDIT AND UPDATE: just a simple room_flagged check (while ROOM_FLAGGED(sendit, ROOM_DEATH) ) and I get this:
Code:
./autorun: line 173: 860742 Segmentation fault (core dumped) nohup bin/circle $FLAGS $PORT >> syslog 2>&1
bug or am I breaking things?
Here's the debug
