This is my way of doing this.
It should be pretty obvious how it works.. I think.. :)
My parse_race is at the end. It's basically the same as parse_class.
The LEGAL_CLASS rules are from AD&D.. (surprise, surprise :)
I only included the first part of CON_QCLASS. The rest should be the
same as orig. circle.
The class menu it prints out is only the classes you are allowed to
choose.
If you have any questions or suggestions, just send me email.
----------------------------------------------------
#define NUM_RACES 6
#define NUM_CLASSES 8
somewhere:
const int LEGAL_CLASS[NUM_RACES][NUM_CLASSES] = {
/* MAG CLE THI FIG RAN PAL BAR ASS */
{ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1}, /* ELF */
{ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1}, /* HUMAN */
{ 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1}, /* DWARF */
{ 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1}, /* GNOME */
{ 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1}, /* HALFLING */
{ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1} /* HALF-ELF */
};
In interpreter.c:
[snip]
default:
SEND_TO_Q("That is not a sex..\r\n"
"What IS your sex? ", d);
return;
break;
}
SEND_TO_Q(race_menu, d);
SEND_TO_Q("\r\nRace: ", d);
STATE(d) = CON_QRACE;
break;
case CON_QRACE:
load_result = parse_race(*arg);
if (load_result == RACE_UNDEFINED) {
SEND_TO_Q("\r\nThat's not a race.\r\nRace: ", d);
return;
} else
GET_RACE(d->character) = load_result;
SEND_TO_Q("\r\nSelect a class:\r\n", d);
buf1[0] = '\0';
for( i = 0; i < NUM_CLASSES; i++)
if (LEGAL_CLASS[(int)GET_RACE(d->character)][i])
sprintf(buf1, "%s %s\r\n", buf1, my_class_menu[i]);
SEND_TO_Q(buf1, d);
SEND_TO_Q("\r\nClass: ", d);
STATE(d) = CON_QCLASS;
break;
case CON_QCLASS:
load_result = parse_class(*arg);
if (load_result == CLASS_UNDEFINED) {
SEND_TO_Q("\r\nThat's not a class.\r\nClass: ", d);
return;
} else if(!LEGAL_CLASS[(int)GET_RACE(d->character)][load_result]) {
sprintf(buf2, "\r\n%s's are not allowed to be %ss.\r\nClass: ",
pc_race_types[(int)GET_RACE(d->character)], arg);
SEND_TO_Q(buf2, d);
return;
} else
GET_CLASS(d->character) = load_result;
