Hi. I didn't know where to post this. But i'm new to the building of a mud. And i'm trying to customize some things. Below i have listed a few of the problems i'm encountering:

1 - I'm set as an Immortal (level 65) and yet when i "oinvoke" and object. I cannot get it from the floor. I don't know why this is. As another immortal who also is level 65 can do so. they type "get all" and they get everything thats on the floor. Yet when i type "get all" it says "Can't take that"

2 - When creating a new object. I did as was needed. assigned a vnum for the object. set all the stats with oset etc. Yet it does not save on the Player. I also find this happens with any object, even objects already on the mud.

I'll probably have other problems. But at the moment these are all i can think of.

I'm using SmaugWiz202 server on Windows.

Thanks

Trice

1.) You need to add the obj wear flag "take".

2.) Is it prototype? Maybe thats why. Either that, or its because it is Windows.

1) I did the oset wear take. It came out weird. It allowed me to take the object in the room. But when a friend tried. They couldn't take it. lol. I ate that object. and the oinvoked it again. And i couldn't take it. any idea why?

2) IT doesn't just happen for immortals. It also happens for actual players. Plus it doesnt have the (Proto) on. Another thing is it happens when i try to keep the default objects that came with the server itself.

1.) Make sure you save the area. Players can't lift the obj if its too heavy, prototype, or doesn't have the wear obj take flag.

2.) All I know is that on my Windows server I used to run, obj's would never save. I never found out why though.
