I have wanted to try and put the dates to use in Circle, for a long time, but I never got around to it. My idea is this: I want to delegate three months for a pretty harsh winter, and then set a room flag so that during these three months snow blocks the path, in a certain direction, in that room. I have an area where players must go thru a narrow pass between two mountains, and I thought it would be nice it they could only get there during the warmer months ;). All I want the room flag to do is block the exit and send_to_char ( "A giant snow drift blocks the path to the %s"\n\r, direction); Something like that, anyway. This idea would be good for things that happen at certain times in the year (perhaps a hurricane season? trees blocking paths? or a magical gateway to another land that opens once a year, or every other year?). I sure many people could put this to good use. I would appreciate any help that you could offer in defining this room flag. Thanks in advance. Oh, and one more question, will Circle 3.0 have N'atas-Ha's MobPrograms I've played around with Merc code and I kinda like the Mobprogs (they're MUCH easier to make than spec_procs for those of us who are C impaired). Thanks Again, Sean Mountcastle
