Btw. To everyone wondering why I'm not writing in 100% correct Oxford
english, there is a reason.... *grin* I'm a dane, and danes do NOT have
english or ammerican as their native language, they have to study hard to
even be able to understand it, and even harder to be able to write a
message thats as understandable as this :)
Ok, nuff said, and nuff' people flamed *lol*
Anyway, I did allso make such a gate spell, I only made ONE gate object
on the casters side, so it's not too easy to get back and stuff, but who
really cares about that part. What I did was to modify the do_move
routines (perhaps it was do_enter), but I did some checking there and
added some information to the obj type beeing what room the portal was
'pointing' to, and then make the person enter that room by typing :
"enter portal".
I think this might be easier to implement, than fiddeling arround with
spec_procs, but ofcourse thats just my oppinion on the matter.
Hope I added some inspiration to your implementation proccess.
Regards,
Con.
