Ok, first of all i'm not a newbie, just to set the tone for this correctly. Ok, here goes. Abbreviations are annoying. Especially if i don't know what they mean. here's one for example (anyone mind telling me what it is?) : code from do_stat_character() in act.wizard.c (STL[%d]/per[%d]/NSTL[%d]) and those 3 %d's align to these variables. GET_PRACTICES(k), int_app[GET_INT(k)].learn, wis_app[GET_WIS(k)].bonus simple example is when you stat a char and something like this shows up: (STL[108]/per[60]/NSTL[7]) ok, now. I have a question. What does the STL/per/NSTL stand for? I know it's not Steal. but how do you get STL from PRACTICES, per from a learn variable, and NSTL from a wis_app bonus variable? I ask, mainly so i can rename the STL/per/NSTL to something more readable/understandable. any insight into this would be helpful, thanks.
