Actually I only checked it with mobs - they have no problems like the ones you're mentioning.

this is the bug - I know I'm repeating myself :) - the actual id number is supposed to be the rooms real number (room_rnum) plus an arbitrary number (ROOM_ID_BASE) -not just the room vnum. So, since the rnum is ever changing (isn't it? - don't you build?), I added this code in dg_scripts.c - just above the 'unknown room field' part. Remove the old way of calculting %room.id% - it's obviously buggy. Here's the snip:
if (r->people)
sprintf(str,"%c%ld",UID_CHAR,GET_ID(r->people));
else *str = '\0';
+ } else if (!str_cmp(field, "id")) {
+ for (count = 0;count <= top_of_world;count++)
+ if (world[count].number==r->number)
+ room_id=count;
+ if (room_id)
+ sprintf(str, "%ld", room_id + ROOM_ID_BASE );
+ else
+ *str='\0';
} else {
*str = '\0';
sprintf(buf2,
"Trigger: %s, VNum %d, type: %d. unknown room field: '%s'",
GET_TRIG_NAME(trig), GET_TRIG_VNUM(trig), type, field);
script_log(buf2);
}
Because in the rest of the code, ROOM_ID_BASE is subtracted from a UID, before the room is found, thus making 1104 too low (1104-ROOM_ID_BASE = -48896), so attach can't find the room, giving an error.
Sorry about the terrible indentation - my mailer does these things to everything I put inhere.
