I had problems with the OLC in that when I - editted a mob or object and it was in existance in the MUD, it would mess - up the strings of the mob, then when I tried to purge it, kablooie. Yep that sounds a lot like the problem with saving mobs and objects that already exist. Purging them will most likely cause a segfault, and since purge with no arguments purges the room (right?), you crash. SOmehow I suspect that isn't the case tho, since you probably aren't edidint things every time this happens. Anyway, for those few of you still using obuild, there's a partially bugfixed version of act.build.c at frp.clark.net/pub/samedi. It isn't much, but I fixed the above string saving problem, fixed the rare problem of endless object files being written to disk, and fixed the mstat hitpoint bug, as well as included the bugfixes in the obuild.06.bugfix file.
