Err, actually it does add rooms, just not new zones. > My mud has been up in texting for 2 > weeks now, its bpl8 with circ-olc and the v2 patch on the olc 'you can > get that at cambot.res.jhu.edu where the rest of that cool stuff is' Cool, I'll have a look for it. > But anyways, i had all my imms make a room...But if they wanted doors, Whoa, wait a sec. I didn't say MAKE doors, I said that was the error message you get. What really happens is the OLC creates a room and sticks it in the database, but doesn't tell the zone_table it has done it. So when the zone resets, it trys to close doors in the wrong rooms, i.e. where there arn't any... This happens with every zone that has a higher VNUM than the one you were working on.

I'm still working on this one.

You could make OLC flag the fact that it is already in use, and automatically prevent re-entry. > > Anyhow, If your mud gives you lots of 'door does not exist' errors > > after using OLC, this is probably the cause.

I wish I had. I've only fixed the bug, and so far, only in redit. Once I've got the bugs out of iedit I may start work on a medit and zedit. Urgh. Anyone already made a start on these? Rv.
