To create a new object type, just drop
#define ITEM_WHATEVER XX
into structs.h, and add to the item_types list in constants.
if you use oasis, you have to increase NUM_ITEM_TYPES in oasis.h
now you have a new object type...now for the code...but first...
A side note...
If you have dgscripts, this would require only a very simple script...
if you dont have dgscripts, get it. if you dont get it, use the
following code:
NOTE: Code is not verbatim, but you should get the general idea.
Dont cut and paste, it will screw up
wherever code for looking at an object is...insert
if (GET_OBJ_TYPE(obj) == ITEM_LINKBOOK)
send_to_char(world[real_room(GET_VAL(obj, 0))].description);
then...
ACMD(do_touch){
/*parse arg for an object, check to make sure obj is a LINKBOOK,
then*/
send_to_char("Message, blah blah", ch
char_from_room(ch);
char_to_room(ch, real_room(GET_OBJ_VAL(book, 0)))
return;
}
Quite obviously, the objects value #0 is the vnum of the object. It will
take some
code to allow this to be set in OLC, but figure it out.
