WARNING! LONG MESSAGE! Here's a very long message with exact code as I implemented it into CircleMUD 3.0bpl8 If you have any problems let me know without being nasty, and I'll do my best to help, but of course I garuntee nothing :) You need to move 'int pulse = 0;' to outside the main game loop so it can be used as a global variable (possibly unnecessarily used). Oh, I'm not sure, but I think I needed to add #include "interpreter.h" in utils.c to get it to work (I did add it to utils.c, but I don't remember if it was for this specifically) Oh, one IMPORTANT, all be it annoying problem.... The way the info is read at bootup, if there is ANY extra spaces at the end of the line boot will fail at that room. (It's defined on the line defining roomflags and sector) The code is AS IS in my mud, but READ THE COMMENTS to make sure it's inserted properly :) And yes, I'm VERY happy with it, no problems have been noticed since I got it working the day before I announced it here :) Explination of syntax in wld file: SillyMUD apparently had no docs to explaine this, so heres a modified section from HoloMUD's builder doc, but most of it should apply. Please excuse my ignorance on the exact meanings of the syntax, the authors of SillyMUD really should have made some docs :P FLAG BIT TELE_LOOK 1 Do a look when teleported TELE_COUNT 2 Uncertain exactly, but the code appears fine TELE_RANDOM 4 Randomizes time teleport room teleports PCs TELE_SPIN 8 <not implemented> The Timer is a value in 1/4sec. So if you set the timer to 60, it would be a 15sec timer. (This shouldn't apply) SO, a teleport room would look like: #8717 The Room Gets Hotter~ The temperature has risen several degrees. The heat has now become unbearable. It would be best to get out of this room NOW!!!! ~ 45 589 -1 30 8718 1 0 <------- FOCUS ON THIS LINE FOR NOW!!! D1 ~ door~ 1 -1 8722 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 8720 S We discuss what all that stuff means below. For now, focus on the line I have indicated: 45 589 -1 32 8718 1 0 45 = zone number -- SEE below 589 = room flags -- SEE below -1 = expect more room details 32 = teleport fires every 8 seconds 8718 = teleports to room 8718 1 = TELE_LOOK 0 = the real sector flag (Inside) Brazil - Imp of AddictMUD - 199.201.186.114 4000 doesn't always hit in all areas -> tolkien.realms.org 4000 Code is as follows: /* File: structs.h */ #define PULSE_TELEPORT (10 RL_SEC) #define TELE_LOOK 1 #define TELE_COUNT 2 #define TELE_RANDOM 4 #define TELE_SPIN 8 /* add to struct room_data {*/ int tele_time;
