Hrm...
I've looked all over the place for a how-to for adding new ear locations,
but have come up empty-handed everywhere. Even at Russ' site, where the
"official FAQ" resides, there's no answer.
I think I've done everything that I had to do for adding in the new
location, but even after a clean compile I end up with the location not
existing.
This is what I've done so far:
In merc.h in the section used by #OBJECTS.
#define ITEM_WEAR_NEW (R)
in the section used by #RESETS:
#define WEAR_NEW 19
#define MAX_WEAR 20
In act_info.c in const where_name:
"<floating nearby> ",
"<new location> ",
};
In handler.c in *wear_bit_name:
if (wear_flags & ITEM_WEAR_NEW ) strcat(buf, " new");
In apply_ac:
case WEAR_NEW: return obj->value[type];
IN olc_act.c in struct wear_type wear_table[]
{ WEAR_NEW, ITEM_WEAR_NEW },
IN tables.c in struct flag_type wear_flags[]:
{ "new", ITEM_WEAR_NEW, TRUE },
in flag_type wear_loc_strings[]:
{ "as a new spot", WEAR_NEW, TRUE },
{ NULL, 0, 0 }
};
in struct flag_type wear_loc_flags[]:
{ "new", WEAR_NEW, TRUE },
{ NULL, 0, 0 }
};
I've made sure that in every table, the new wear location has been inserted
in accordance to it's position in the defines of merc.h. The new position
comes after floating, and so it was placed into each struct, after floating.
I must have missed something here. Can someone help me out please? I've
tried everything I can think of to get it to work. Heck, I even thought I'd
forgotten to increase MAX_WEAR (which I hadn't).
Thanks in advance.

PS. Is there a reason why the offical FAQ no longer contains instructions
on how to do this?
