Object Affect Flags [by ?]

                              OBJECT AFFECT FLAGS

This code will allow you to add affect flags to objects. At the end of
the file, there is also an example object with some affect flags set.

In db.c, go to parse_object() look for the switch statement of the
additional flags, then insert: [the part between the #defines is the
inserted code, the other is vanilla]

#ifdef HYPNO
/*
** affect player flags (see AFF_XXX flags in structs.h )
** This allows players flags to be affected by an item, for example
** create a ring which gives the player permanent sense life when worn.
**
** Note: more 'C' fields are allowed because all found 'C' (set char bits)
**       fields are added to the current values. (nice for builders who
**       don't want those large bitvector numbers in the obj file).
*/
         case 'C':
      get_line(obj_f, line);
      sscanf(line, "%d ", t);
      obj_proto[i].obj_flags.bitvector = obj_proto[i].obj_flags.bitvector | t[0
];
      break;
#endif
    case '$':
    case '#':
      top_of_objt = i++;
      return line;
      break;
    default:
      fprintf(stderr, "Format error in %s\n", buf2);

Once this is done, you can now add the flag to your object files. The
example below shows how:

This ring is a masterpiece! the shiny golden blue ring is attached to
a platinum cord and has an inscription of silvery symbols.

The cord looks really strange as if it can grow and shrink.
