Not sure about the 'hit' part above, but just use
GET_EXP(ch)=GET_EXP(ch) + (30*(GET_LEVEL(ch)/3));
Remember though, you're doing integer math, so any fractions drop
off.. 1/3 = 0, etc.

Sure it does, though, you probably only want to reward them for
actually moving (as opposed to walking in a dir and failing to enter).
You may have a less-than-immediately simple situation here, because
masters are accountable for making their followers move..However, the
function perform move is probably where you want to make your alterations.
Just check for 'TRUE' values from do_simple_move, and perform_move and if
so, reward the mover with 3 exp points;
GET_EXP(mover) += 3;

This I don't know. One issue that may come up is the fact that
Oasis (at least) assumes that all zones are 100 rooms large, starting at
(zone number) * 100, and ending at (zone number) * 100 + 99. If you have
any zones outside this range, it will throw off all zones above this.
Also, zedit new is nefarious for messing up zone tables, and the sort, so
if you used that you may want to hand-verify your files (which you should
do anyway, because you can't zedit/etc some zones).
