Here is a much easier solution. In spell_parser.c, where each affect
spell is located, there are two lines you are concerned with, (for
this particular problem)
accum_duration = TRUE; (will allow players to build up to 600hrs of armor
for ex)
accum_affect = TRUE; (will allow players to stack the affects, EX AC of -80
after 4 armor spells)
change both of those to FALSE, and everything will be as you want it.
(these lines may not even be there, if not, add them)
Of course, if you want these spells to be accum, you will have to add the check!
Good luck,
Chuck
