Yes. I created the bitvector with the express purpose of using it only for
guilds (up to 32) and also defined a NUM_GUILDS (presently 18).

Based on the suggestions from you and Welcor I have done the following:
int count_guilds(struct char_data *ch)
{
int i, count = 0;
for (i = 0;i < NUM_GUILD;i++)
if (IS_SET(GUILD_FLAGS(ch), (1<<i)))
count++;
return count;
}
Is there a reason that using NUM_GUILD vs. a static 32 would be bad?
(Assuming that NUM_GUILD is increased when new guilds are added.)
I also added this to the score info for my testing/debuging:
send_to_char(ch, "You belong to %d guilds.\r\n", count_guilds(ch));
And it seems to be working most excellently. I'll be working out the formula
based xp and using count_guilds to modify that base.
Thanks to you both!
