after playing with the socials a bit more, heres a new take... the socials error is: SYSERR: format error in social file near social '#' heres the social made from aedit making a social ingame: ~doh doh 0 0 0 0 You smack $n on the forehead. $N smacks $n on the forehead. # # # Smack who? where? You smack yourself on the forehead. you dope! # # # # # $n smacks $sself on the forehead. here's the code from where the error is given in act.social.c: /* now read 'em */ for (;;) { fscanf(fl, " %s ", next_soc); if (*next_soc == '$') break; if (fscanf(fl, " %s %d %d %d %d \n", sorted, &hide, &min_char_pos, &min_pos, &min_lvl) != 5) { log("SYSERR: format error in social file near social '%s'", next_soc); exit(1); } /* read the stuff */ curr_soc++; soc_mess_list[curr_soc].command = strdup(next_soc+1); soc_mess_list[curr_soc].sort_as = strdup(sorted); soc_mess_list[curr_soc].hide = hide; soc_mess_list[curr_soc].min_char_position = min_char_pos; soc_mess_list[curr_soc].min_victim_position = min_pos; soc_mess_list[curr_soc].min_level_char = min_lvl; now somewhere in here, I screwed up... however like most of my screwups, I'll be hanged if I can find it. the reason I've concluded its in this portion of code is because, really this is (mostly) the only part of the code I dont understand. help!? could anyone please explain what with this? I've put up my codebase at musu.homelinux.org/musu1.3/ feel free to peruse it, and point out mistakes.... thanks, ben (musu.homelinux.org: 4000) Multi Users in a Star wars Universe (coming soon to a network node near you) ________________________________________________________________ Sign Up for Juno Platinum Internet Access Today Only $9.95 per month!
