Okies, here is the continuing chapters of my cookbook. METHOD :- 1/ Again, save the char with all the eq you want to dupe, then transfer all that eq to a new char and save the new char. Buy thousands of breads (I'm sure you can afford it since they are cheap) and drop them on the ground. Type look, and if you get the warning :- *** OVERFLOW ERROR *** then you are getting close to the mark. Now buy MORE breads until you think you have enough *grin* Alias the following :- alias tt look; look; look; look; look; look and now, using a mud client, have several chars in the same room and type #all #100 tt This should lag the mud tremendously, especially if you have more chars in the same room, and if you lag it enough, it autokills. Yes, yes, I hear you say that this method sounds similar to my previous method by trying to lag the mud, which I sincerely feel is the BIGGEST weakness of circlemud..hmm..I really dont know much about other mud codes *blush* SOLUTION :- 1/ Code multiple objects so it will show [2000] breads - this will prevent overflowing the buf. Dont ask me for a patch, I hate doing patches (well, actually, I dont know much about the diff command), but I heard there is a patch on the snippet, so find it there I guess. Basically, The Dark Realms coders use original code. 2/ As previously suggested, prevent the same command going through, but there is a weakness to that...what if the alias is actually alias tt look;bounce;look;bounce;look Then your checks for the same command doesnt really work?? Anyways, I have my own system BUT please do not ask me how I did it because I do not want anyone else to know about it just in case they find out a way to circumvent it (which, fortunately, the crashers have been unable to do). Okies, thats enough for now. I will list more in the future - there is one nasty one which I havent been able to work out yet because it affects player stats :(( We get really persistent mudders on Dark Realms *grin* Oh well, it helps keep us on our toes I guess.
