(I made one for the mob I > am trying to use the mob prog on) The reason sepc_procs can cast the spell is because the spell is coded. With mob programs all they do is the same commands as the user.. they act just like you "switched" into the mob. If the mob does not know the spell then they can not cast it. If the mob DOESknow the spell then they can cast it. With Spec_procs.c the mob doesn't have to "know" the spell.. because the code casts it without doing the checks to see if the mob "knows" the spell or not. You have to imp in additional code to assign spells to mobs or do a IS-NPC check everytime something is cast. If it's a mob it casts it automatically at supurb otherwise do the standard checks for PC's. We imp'd it in the first way on our mud. Hope this helps.... Just remember Mob Programs are NOT spec_procs, they give artifical life to the mob casting, saying, telling, socials and fighting just like a player would, with the same basic restrictions as players have. SPEC-PROCS can do anything you can code. -Peace Argus http://www.argy.com telnet: eclipse.argy.com 7777 +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://cspo.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list_faq.html | +-----------------------------------------------------------+
