You were right about that :-) Alright... What are you suggesting to fix this? Thank you for your help so far and
I really appreciate it :-)
gdb's response to print portal:
(gdb) print portal
$1 = (struct obj_data *) 0x0
The code is...
#define PORTAL_OBJ 20
ASPELL(spell_portal)
{
struct obj_data *portal, *tportal;
struct extra_descr_data *new_descr, *new_tdescr;
char buf[80];
if (ch == NULL || victim == NULL)
return;
/* Create the Portal */
portal = read_object(PORTAL_OBJ, VIRTUAL);
Line 445 GET_OBJ_VAL(portal, 0) = victim->in_room;
GET_OBJ_TIMER(portal) = (int) (GET_LEVEL(ch) / 10);
CREATE(new_descr, struct extra_descr_data, 1);
new_descr->keyword = str_dup("portal gate gateway");
sprintf(buf, "You can barely make out %s.", world[victim->in_room].name);
new_descr->description = str_dup(buf);
new_descr->next = portal->ex_description;
portal->ex_description = new_descr;
obj_to_room(portal, ch->in_room);
