What your gonna need to do, is look back through the last few patches you installed, and make sure everything is right. Also, if any of your recent patches changed the calling of any functions like my tables-formula patch does with the experience function, you'll want to use grep, or find, to search through your code to make sure that every call to the function is made properly. That's what was wrong when it happened to me. The mud I was working on had meta, and I didn't realize that meta called upon the experience function, and never thought to look in it's coding. In the end, meta kept crashing the mud, with no errors or core dump. Here's an example of what I'm talking about: int level_exp(int chclass, int level); was changed to: int level_exp(int chclass, int level, int chrace); and meta was calling upon it with level_exp(GET_CLASS(ch), GET_LEVEL(ch)); when it should've been: level_exp(GET_CLASS(ch), GET_LEVEL(ch), GET_RACE(ch)); Hope it helps ya! -- +---------------------------------------------------------------+ | 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/ | +---------------------------------------------------------------+
