I don't know about anyone else, but this is very difficult to
interpret!
I took out all the smartxxx comments I was going to post, because I think
Alex would send me a nasty gram if I did.
A couple of suggestions here:
1. Send some more information such as the gdb output, errors, or some code.
(Last I heard, George's crystal ball was at the cleaners)
2. Try formating your information in a manner that is more understandable.
3. Start with simpler things to code, spells, wear positions, number of
attacks, or other similar snippets. To get a better idea of how the code
is put togather, and where things are.
