I am having extrordinare problems with the GET_SKILL macro, and my
modifed code. I use the GET_SKILL as basically a simple number. With
the new way the macro is defined, I can't compile half the MUD. I
temporarily set it back to the old macro, but I am wondering if there is
some way around this without rewrittinf my code.
Basically, I use a lot of
if (GET_SKILL(ch, SKILL_WHATEVER) < 20)
and
if (roll_chance(ch, GET_SKILL(ch, SKILL_WHATEVER)))
type calls. None of these will work with the new macro. Just so you
know, the roll_chance() is a way of doing a 101-fail-skill roll, with
modifiers based on various skills, room flags, and other factors.
Also, is there a UNIX way to to a multi-file find & replace without
writing a complex script? I want to do a complete find & replace of the
IS_AFFECTED with the AFF_FLAGGED, but it occurs is so many places, it is
unfeasible to do so. Also, I have IS_AFFECTED2, IS_AFFECTED3, &
IS_AFFECTED4, so I want to change them all, without too much work. I can
do so in BBedit, if I download all the code, then re-upload it, but
that's an awful lot of work and transfer time (I figure 20 minutes at my
speed modem) and also if I need to do it again, I want to know how :)
