Yeah, I know, which is why I corrected my initial, since he didn't have the victim pointer.
His problem is that the object is called "the corpse of Dude", so he makes a scalp, and has a scalp as "a scalp of the corpse of Dude". Basically, he'll need to use str_replace in an empty string to replace "the corpse of" to "" from the target object, in this case the corpse, which he -will- have a pointer of, so now he has "Dude" as the string, and he can use that to replace that in a sprintf. Like I said, I didn't read the initial post well enough, so I had to correct. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dale" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Matthew Martin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, April 26, 2004 9:58 AM Subject: Re: scalp command for scalping PC corpses > Honestly don't listen to this idea, > free_string(victim->name).........................
