hrmm cast levels ey? You may wanna try this.
if IS_CAST_STAT(cast,WEAPON_SWORD);
ch->level = ch->level += ?;
or
if IS_CAST_STAT(cast,WEAPON_SWORD);
spell_whatever(skill_lookup ("whatever"), ch->level + ?, ch, vch,
TARGET_CHAR);
// i may have that wrong someone tell him if i do its realy early.
#define IS_CAST_STAT (obj,stat)(IS_SET((obj)->value[6],(stat)))
// note the 6 there ;)
// ull need to put in another value since your going to do it on all
//objects for the mud. should be easy enough. just call it in olc.
// look at the ones already there just do a search for obj->value
// grep obj->value * >irock.txt
// vi or pico irock.txt and make your mods there before you put it in with
// the code so atleast youll know it works when you do by looking at it.
Well that should point you in the right direction let me know if you have
any problems with errors or something. you realy shouldnt. the code is
already there just you got to add to it. and we all know adding is good.
You can normaly find me hammering away at my mud thinking of something
else to do. telnet://demonmud.org:9000
