Hello:

I am having a problem with hedit. I type hedit imotd and i also edited a few oters like greeting. I save changes (of course) Then When the mud is rebooted (automatically) all changes are lost. i get zero bug output or log or anything so i am lost here....

Also i want to add new charactor stats (like regen feelings and aditional hp information- is there
a quick rundown for this one any where....

Thanks in advance

Make sure that after you've finished editing the help files, you type "hset save". The mud won't actually save the helpfiles to disk until you do this.

In mud.h you will find a section describing CHAR_DATA, add your extra variables here. Then in save.c you want to make sure that you write the new data to the character file and read it back. This is simple enough just look how its done for all the other stats.

Of course just adding the new data doesnt change a thing, your going to have to write the functions that interact with them. Im sure you already realise that of course.
