Different try: I found this in interpreter.c: /* with the copyover patch, this next line goes in enter_player_game() */ GET_ID(d->character) = GET_IDNUM(d->character); So i put this in enter_player_game and still had the same problem. It continues to crash upon the first thing typed(or a simple enter) after a copyover. This is because history_pos in comm.c is NULL according to gdb. I have compared the refrenced of history_pos to the code before i added copyover, didn't see anything. northeast corner you spot a small staircase leading upwards. A large bulletin board is mounted on a wall here. It glows with a faint aura. > copyover *** COPYOVER by Sim - please remain seated! Restoring from copyover... Copyover recovery complete. Welcome to the land of CircleMUD! May your visit here be... Interesting. The Immortal Board Room The main hang out of the Gods, the Immortal Board Room is the place to be. Gods exchange messages here most every day. The mortal board room is to the east and the meeting room for the gods is to the south. To the north is the Gods' Inn and to the west is a post office for Gods. There is a large staircase leading down to the main temple in the city of Midgaard. In the northeast corner you spot a small staircase leading upwards. A large bulletin board is mounted on a wall here. It glows with a faint aura. > look Connection closed by foreign host. [4] Done ./autorun THe only solution i found was removing the refrences ro history_pos in comm.c. This obviously isn't a good solution and i imigian it has problems... history_pos is initialized here: if (*tmp == '!' && !(*(tmp + 1))) /* Redo last command. */ strcpy(tmp, t->last_input); else if (*tmp == '!' && *(tmp + 1)) { char *commandln = (tmp + 1); --> int starting_pos = t->history_pos, cnt = (t->history_pos == 0 ? HISTORY_SIZE - 1 : t->history_pos - 1); and crashes here: } else { strcpy(t->last_input, tmp); --> if (t->history[t->history_pos]) free(t->history[t->history_pos]); /* Clear the old line. */ t->history[t->history_pos] = str_dup(tmp); /* Save the new. */ if (++t->history_pos >= HISTORY_SIZE) /* Wrap to top. */ t->history_pos = 0; } Has anyone else encountered similar problems? +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://democracy.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
