First off, simply changing your levels isn't enough. Then again, I'm sure you've been made aware of that. That said, without seeing your code, nobody can really "help" you. Debugging your errors and whatnot is a task left to the coder generally. Here's a few things you CAN do (take it or leave it, honestly, don't take it as a flame, or anything of the like because that's not what it's meant as) A> Restore your backup code (You DO have backups right??), then go through piece by piece and try to figure out what it was you did wrong. Changing ML -=SHOULDN'T=- be that complicated, if you stick to the basics of code. B> As already suggested, go through, use stc, printf, etc, inside each bit of your code that you've changed. You'll find that this tells you what it's getting to, what it's not. C> GDB is your friend. If you mud's not dumping a core, search through the list archives for how to use it. In fact, I believe that one's on the FAQ somewhere. D> Find a friend that knows how to code to look through it. Someone that knows what they're doing, is seemingly familiar with code. Maybe they can help you out, seeing something that nobody else sees. E> Find a coder that's familiar with Rom to go through and help you out, if you don't know what you're doing. I can't stress this enough, because (as you're already finding out), if you don't know what you're doing, you make more work on yourself just by trying to change something simple like that.
Finally, reposting a topic, that's already under discussion is really in bad taste. If the topic actually never made it to the list in the first place, that's a different story completely, but, in this case it did, and it had at least one response. Just somethin to keep in mind :) ------------------------------------------- TJW: Head tech, Dreamless Realms Mud Personal: http://twhiting.kyndig.com Mud: http://drealms.kyndig.com Snippets http://drealms.kyndig.com/snippets Telnet telnet://drealms.kyndig.com:9275 The OLC2 Pages http://olc.kyndig.com ------------------------------------------- -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2002 12:43 AM To: [email protected] Subject: re:wizhelp prob olc 2.01 ok, i've been testing and coding and restoring etc. the only thing i can think of is something in command editor, but since im used to 1.81 im not sure how this changes the wizhelp. If anyone has had the wizhelp/command problem (and actually fixed it) could you please send me how? I've been working on this 2 days how (30+hrs) and i still cant get it to work.
