While I'll be nice in how I reply, I won't -- and neither will anyone else
on this list -- code for you. What you want to do is not a simple one-step
code addition and could be considered advanced for a newbie. In fact, it
incorporates several pertinent files. My first suggestion is to read the
FAQ of this list and then get yourself a book on C coding. Thereafter,
spend a few weeks looking at the code to determine the what/where/how of
each function. As nudge in the right direction, however, I'll point you to
the relevant files.
First, you'll need to modify structs.h to add the new CON_xxx state that
players will enter when prompted for their hometown. Then you'll need to
add various #define statements that give values for each HOMETOWN_xxx.
Then you'll need to modify interpreter.c to account for your new prompt of
"Hometown?". Then you'll need to modify constants.c to create a structure
of the textual names of each hometown. Then you'll need to modify
act.informative.c to display the hometown in do_score. Then you'll need to
modify act.wizard.c to allow immortals to set a player's hometown....
Understand now why people aren't just going to provide you with the "quick"
code? That's because there is none. :) Believe me, you'll learn a heck
of lot more -- and faster -- if you trudge through and do it yourself.
