Another thing you can do, is that I believe that function defaults to a send_to_char for the output... change that to a page_to_char call and it will use an actual BUFFER * object to hold the output and only spew it 1 page at a time to the character...

Take a look at the memory code found here: http://www.dreamless-realms.org/downloads-file-7.html I don't claim to have written that, just found it a couple of years back, and it's helped me quite a bit. Basically this will get rid of a lot of your buffer overflow problems, as it expands the buffer as necessary. Quite usefull if you've got a few areas in your game :) On Sun, 25 Sep 2005 00:03:14 -0700 (PDT), Apple Britters wrote: > I was having a problem with a buffer overflow.
