Ok... here's the code: ------------------------------ do_kill in act.offensive.c ----------- ACMD(do_kill) { struct char_data *vict; if ((GET_LEVEL(ch) < LVL_IMPL) || IS_NPC(ch)) { do_hit(ch, argument, cmd, subcmd); return; } one_argument(argument, arg); if (!*arg) { send_to_char("Kill who?\r\n", ch); } else { if (!(vict = get_char_room_vis(ch, arg))) send_to_char("They aren't here.\r\n", ch); else if (ch == vict) send_to_char("Your mother would be so sad.. :(\r\n", ch); else if (((strcmp(argument, "testdummy")) && (GET_LEVEL(ch) == LVL_IMPL) && (strcmp(GET_NAME(vict), "testdummy")))) { raw_kill(ch); return; } else { printf("Argument = %s\r\n", argument); /* just for me to see that the args are working */ act("You chop $M to pieces! Ah! The blood!", FALSE, ch, 0, vict, TO_CHAR); act("$N chops you to pieces!", FALSE, vict, 0, ch, TO_CHAR); act("$n brutally slays $N!", FALSE, ch, 0, vict, TO_NOTVICT); raw_kill(vict); } } } ------------------------------- end of do_kill ------------------------------------ I guess I'm still stumped... I think I used the syntax correctly, and the arguments are working, but it's not doing what it should be doing... no matter who kills who, as long as they're LVL_IMPL, it runs thru the strcmp lines and just raw_kill's the person who tried to type kill <whoever>. Does anyone see anything wrong? Do I have some ()'s or {} out of place maybe? - Brian +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://democracy.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
