Ok, I have a spell that sets up an Affect wooden bit... Now I am currently working through two ways of making this work, and wondering the best possible way.. I want to make it KINd of like the freeze command.. where all movemnet is ceased. I tried to make the spell aff_MAXMOVE, and all it seems to do is remove the original move points, no added points.. I want to be able to keep the person from moving, because they are petrified... Now, I also want to keep them from attacking other people as well.. they are like a tree.. they shouldn't be able to attack.. Or do very much damage.. I have started by adding a check in a lot of commands that checks for this wooden thing.. The reason for the bit, is so that fire spells will have a greater effect on the person being woodd, and things like small swords will only do so much.. (ever try to cut down an oak tree by hacking at it with a dagger? Never work out too good..) Is there an easier way to do this? How can I call the AFF without placing checks all over the place.. I am preatty sure that it is a BIG waste of space constantly checking everything.. Any ideas? Zippy the Wonderslug WWW: http://www.icom.ca/~chrisa/mud.html
