Heh... this is starting to get funny... That message was a mistake and
wasn't supposed to go to the list but since it did... here ya go... :)
Any questions send them this way I'll see what I can do... This is only
the race stuff and if your interested in languages it's a little more
detailed (changes to do_say, and a new do_speak)...
I'll even add some comments so you can see some useless stuff that's only
good on my mud :)
I'll include a copy of my race.c here (It's not too big... :):

Ok, that's pretty straight forward. Like I said our race system stems off
of our language system so some of that will be pointless :).
Some points of note (I'm taking it your an experianced coder so I'm not
gonna include all the files :):
You need a define for RACE_HUMAN, RACE_ELF... in structs.h... You'll also
wanna throw some macros in utils.h for GET_RACE(ch) (I can't provide
macros because my pfile has been changed so it's not gonna work on a
stock (or semi-stock) mud.).
And of course you need to add somewhere in the interpreter.c's nanny()
function a place to select your race. It's almost an exact duplicate of
the class (see the menu at the top of the race.c above :) menu and is
called from nanny() just the same (I belive it has to be done before class
to work corectly, or other code in nanny has to be changed. This also
requires adding another CON state (don't fogret to add a text description
of the CON_QRACE (or whatever you call it) into constants.c)
And if you have any questions (I just woke up and threw this together so
if you don't understand it sorry :) just ask. It'd probably be better to
ask me directly since it is my code and I don't profess to be the worlds
greatest coder so some of it my not be the greatest.
Laters...
