To see if they rented in a room, check their load room when they come into the game
(in interpreter.c nanny() CON_MENU case 1:) and see if it matches any in a list of
all the inn rooms(which you'll have to hardcode to make this easiest.. although i
guess you could make it dynamic by checking if the load_room has a mob with a special
function, and if it does, is the special a receptionist.).
cost of renting is set in objsave.c crash_load();
'heal' code is in store_to_char() in db.c.. where it checks for if !POISONed just add
the same check_if_in_inn function you wrote for above.
