Are you getting the act message at all? Also, have you tested this with a char
higher than level 20? Also, I believe you may need a char_data *ch, not sure,
did this compile without warnings? Also, I just noticed, if you are the only
one in the room, and have AC greater than or equal -10, you do not get a message
sent to you. The spec could be working you just are not getting a message. Also
try making the damage really high and watch your hp's to see if it is doing any
damage.
good luck,
Chuck
When having probs of this sort, always set the chance of success to 100%, this helps
greatly.
