Well you can do an assign obj to this :). make a spec proc for herb that when eatem will cure you then assign this to an obj same with pill. As for eating without seeing, i usually don't look at my fork when i am eating it knows where to go, but a good idea might be a chance to eat the wrong one :P <I wouldn't know which fork i picked up :)> Malcor On Wed, 21 Aug 1996 collins@raptor.eznets.canton.oh.us wrote: > Anyone have suggestions or codes on how I can foods with special properties, > i.e. A Herb which causes 'cure light' or a pill that cures blindness, etc. > > BTW - How the hell can you eat a pill if your blind ;) > > -J > > "Listening to some short green alien dude who babbles about the force just > might get you trouble, stupid!" > Wise Words form J #045 > > > > +-----------------------------------------------------------+ > | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | > | http://cspo.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list_faq.html | > +-----------------------------------------------------------+ > +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://cspo.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list_faq.html | +-----------------------------------------------------------+ From cat@vuse.vanderbilt.edu Fri, 23 Aug 96 12:35:20 -0500 X-SystemInfo: MyE-Mail: EMail X-Message-No: 4012 (database) From: Katzlberger Thomas <cat@vuse.vanderbilt.edu> To: circle <circle@cspo.queensu.ca> Subject: [Circle] [LAG] Priority ageing, optimization, ... ?

They run and then lag (sometimes badly), the telnet connections to them time out but the host they are on replies to ping immediately without errors. May this be caused by priority aging (specifically I think about Sun's), as MUD's usually run on user level, not as normal daemons which run in su mode. Is there any tuning one can do to the source to reduce lag? Of course optimize code, but how? One can optimize s.t. pageing is minnimized (link with the info from the profiler: gmon.out) Best tuning: nice --10 ;) Of course the biggest foe for muds is WWW as it sucks up all of the bandwidth of the internet with its pictures and ad's. Another possibility would be to put parts of the MUD in special threads, but its impossible whith this shared buffer design of circle. Circle is virtually free of reentrant code.
