It seemed to be nasty invisible whitespace characters that for some reason messed up things. I got the same numbers -1,0. Retyping some of the files from scratch fixed it. Also there seemed to be some VNUMs that just don't work. In one zone I added 20 to everything's VNUM and the problem went away. Sometimes adding a zone would cause a previously working zone to start giving these errors. I was running on a NeXT with a hacked (got it from AIX) unistd.h and some other "patches" to get it to go. In fact I had to redo a lot of the malloc stuff, which might be part of the problem. Best wishes. Pop into EndorMud if ya get a chance (before the evil firewall locks everyone out 8^). endor.byu.edu 5555 Multi-classes, about 25 added areas, 60 levels, most of the SillyMud spells, and a lot of good clean butchering.... 8^) Dennis =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dennis R.
