What I meant for copyover is that by separating out that bit of code into its own function it would make it easier to apply that code to a MUD which uses copyover (or vice-versa) because you can just add a single line calling the function from inside do_copyover(). The idea of adding it to heartbeat is strictly for crashing. In my own MUD (which has copyover) I separated the code out into a function and I call it from three places, init_game(), heartbeat(), and do_copyover().
