I remember this problem from when I installed races.. [I can just hear the entire list groan as they remember all the questions I asked constantly.. :> ] I think you've fallen prey to the horrid 'invisible garbage characters' syndrome. I'm guessing you used cut 'n paste to move stuff from race.doc to utils.h. Go to all the lines you added in utils.h, erase them totally, then retype the exact same thing over again. Don't use any copying functions to copy the code from races.doc to utils.h .... the problem will go away. :> [If you didn't copy 'n paste the stuff in, then I dunno what's wrong.. check any #defines you added to make sure they're correct, and check any macros.] Steve -- Who isn't entirely sure if what he said makes any sense :> +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://cspo.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list_faq.html | +-----------------------------------------------------------+
