In perform_violence(), fight.c find the lines:
hit(ch, FIGHTING(ch), TYPE_UNDEFINED);
if (MOB_FLAGGED(ch, MOB_SPEC) && mob_index[GET_MOB_RNUM(ch)].func != NULL)
(mob_index[GET_MOB_RNUM(ch)].func) (ch, ch, 0, "");
Change to:
for (; apr >= 0 && FIGHTING(ch); apr--)
hit(ch, FIGHTING(ch), TYPE_UNDEFINED);
if (MOB_FLAGGED(ch, MOB_SPEC) && mob_index[GET_MOB_RNUM(ch)].func != NULL)
(mob_index[GET_MOB_RNUM(ch)].func) (ch, ch, 0, "");
Now, at the beginning of perform_violence() add "int apr = 0;" and then
before the above shown for() loop, do the skill checks:
if (number(1, 200) <= GET_SKILL(ch, SKILL_SECOND_ATTACK))
apr++;
if (number(1, 300) <= GET_SKILL(ch, SKILL_THIRD_ATTACK))
apr++;
if (affected_by_spell(ch, SPELL_HASTE))
apr += number(0, 2);
and continue on in that same method, incrementing 'apr' by one for each
attack the person gets. You needn't change the for() loop and it does
make sure that FIGHTING(ch) is not NULL before hitting. If apr is 0 it
will only hit once (since apr is checked if it's >= 0, not just over, the
check isn't true until we hit -1). Essentially, zero "counts" for an
attack.
