Is there a maximum number of bitvectors that can be defined as affection
bits? From a fresh copy of Circle3 p15, I added 50 new spells in one
fell swoop. 31 of those spells required an affection bitvector, which I
added in structs.h.
My structs.h file now looks like this:
...[snip]
#define AFF_SNEAK (1 <<<< 18) /* Char can move quietly */
#define AFF_HIDE (1 <<<< 19) /* Char is hidden */
#define AFF_UNUSED20 (1 <<<< 20) /* Room for future expansion */
#define AFF_CHARM (1 <<<< 21) /* Char is charmed */
#define AFF_FREE_ACTION (1 <<<< 22) /* Char cannot be held, slowed */
#define AFF_RESIST_FIRE (1 <<<< 23) /* Char takes 50% fire damage */
#define AFF_RESIST_COLD (1 <<<< 24) /* Char takes 50% cold damage */
#define AFF_GROUNDING (1 <<<< 25) /* Char immune to lightning */
#define AFF_IMMUNE_FIRE (1 <<<< 26) /* Char immune to fire */
...[snip]
#define AFF_SILENCE (1 <<<< 53) /* Char is silenced */
Only the first 3 new bitvectors (FREE_ACTION-22, RESIST_FIRE-23, and
RESIST_COLD-24) actually work. The remainder (25-53) all cause this
warning in every file that references the bitvectors when I compile:
warning: left shift count >= width of type
For example, the above warning occurs 28 times when I compile my magic.c
file. Each warning corresponds to the af[0].bitvector = AFF_[affect]
line as follows:
case SPELL_BARKSKIN:
af[0].location = APPLY_AC;
af[0].modifier = -20;
af[0].duration = 24;
af[0].bitvector = AFF_BARKSKIN <<--- "left shift" warning on this line
accum_duration = TRUE;
to_vict = "Your skin hardens into dense bark.";
break;
When the new problematic spells are cast in-game, they take effect with
the proper to_char echoes, but then they take ANOTHER bitvector. For
instance, when I cast "Immunity to Fire", it actually sets
AFF_IMMUNE_COLD. When I cast "Fly", it sets AFF_DISEASE. I've
triple-checked my magic.c file to make sure the proper bitvectors are
being assigned to their respective spells.
What is going on? How do I overcome this problem? Any help is much
appreciated. Thanks.
