Like for a thieve's peek skill or a scrying >spell maybe (note: I have no idea why the original poster >wanted look_in_direction this way, but that's not the point) The point was to show how to use a room number instead of ch->in_room. I wasn't trying to do exactly what they wanted, mostly because I forgot exactly what they wanted halfway through it. So I just did the room number conversion. Now do the same for the rest of the look functions and you don't have to yank people around just to do so. -- George Greer greerga@circlemud.org -- +---------------------------------------------------------------+ | FAQ: http://qsilver.queensu.ca/~fletchra/Circle/list-faq.html | | Archives: http://post.queensu.ca/listserv/wwwarch/circle.html | | Newbie List: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/circle-newbies/ | +---------------------------------------------------------------+
