if(FIGHTING(ch)&&FIGHTING(FIGHTING(ch))!=ch) display hp of FIGHTING(FIGHTING(ch)) {the tank} Ya don't want to be playing with the master of the char because they aren't the one that will get whacked by the aggro mob. the first person to follow is the tank. unless you have mobs aggro'ing on the entry of a person to the room and not using mobile_activity() --Angus (the play might not have a master either) ______________________________ Forward Header __________________________________ Subject: Problems with finding the leader of a group Author: INTERNET:CIRCLE@post.queensu.ca at CSERVE Date: 11/1/97 5:08 AM I am currently playing around with the prompt code for Circle. I was wanting to implement a way in which I could display the leader of a group's hit points during combat to his/her followers while they all fight together. I tried using GET_HIT(d->character->master) but for some reason that pointer returns a null value. Any ideas on how to get the leader's name so that I can pass that argument onto GET_HIT() or GET_HIT_MAX() ? In case any one is wondering, I am making all the modifications with the make_prompt function (comm.c). Since make_prompt only calls struct descriptor_data, I am trying to work with that structure instead of attempting to rewrite the prompt function. Any help, hints, or other implementation strategies are welcome.
