ok.... adding the fields it the easy part, what about updating them? Having advance_level advance player_table[].level would be easy, but what about gold. Don't know if that is going to be much of a problem because I am going to have to replace all GET_GOLD calls with functions because we are moving to a currency system with denominations, but what about everyone else? They would need to do the same thing? --Angus ______________________________ Forward Header __________________________________ Subject: Re: Circlemud design issues Author: INTERNET:CIRCLE@POST.QUEENSU.CA at CSERVE Date: 4/22/98 9:54 AM > Also we lose the capability to, say, find out just how much gold is in > the players' posession.

If you want gold stats on a regular basis, you could add it to the player_table, as I've done with player level and last login for automaintenance purposes. +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://democracy.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
