Your problem is that you are using vnums where you need rnums.
/* Begin Mailer Code */
room_num room1 = NOWHERE, room2 = NOWHERE;
room1 = real_room(766);
room2 = real_room(2617);
if (room1 == NOWHERE || room2 == NOWHERE) {
log("SYSERR: Either room 766 or 2617 does not exist for fortress
spec.");
return FALSE;
}
if (time_info.month > 4 && time_info.month < 8) {
CREATE(world[room1].dir_option[0], struct room_direction_data, 1);
world[room1].dir_option[0]->general_description = NULL;
world[room1].dir_option[0]->keyword = NULL;
world[room1].dir_option[0]->to_room = room2;
}
/* End Mailer Code */
Also, you had better check to see if the exit already exists, you had better
remove it first. In addition to this, when you move the exit, you had better
make sure that the old exit is removed from the game as well. Creating exits
on the fly is not quite as simple as one may think. There are all sorts of
opportunities to trash some memory and crash your mud.
Good Luck
