Remort Problems

Damn, and I'd thought it would be at least a week.....

Anyways, I'm back again, and I've had alot of success installing various other snippets to my mud in progress. I'm running across a problem with the remort snippet by Xerves, and it appears to be in only one line.....

load_char_obj(d, capitalize( oldch->name ), TRUE );

in remort.c

when I try to compile, it gives me an error that says:

remort.c:184: error: too few arguments to 'load_char_obj'

of course the line above was line 184, but I'm trying to figure out the missing argument.......

any answers on that one folks?

Find the load_char_obj function and look at the function header. Compare the arguments to the function call.

With situations like this you need to inspect the function prototype. Looking in mud.h will usually help, or grep for it like I did:


$ grep load_char_obj *.h

mud.h:bool load_char_obj args( ( DESCRIPTOR_DATA * d, char *name, bool preload, bool copyover ) );


Lol, thanks Zeno.

All it needed as an extra TRUE to the line and it compiled perfectly, tested it and it works like it's supposed to :)

Are you sure you needed a TRUE and not a FALSE?

And thank you to, nick :) That's exactly what i did to find what I was missing :)

Well, it looked like it worked fine to me. It sent the message correctly, the char remorted to the desired class, the desired level, all seemes okay to me

I believe (if you have the same prototype as Nick posted) that making it TRUE indicates a copyover is in progress.

Thanks Zeno.

Now that I read the args there, that seems to be exactly what it seems. I'll change that to false and retest it.
