Though this has been discussed before on the list, it was I
believe about 4 months ago+. The problem, and solution are simple:
The mob is killed, extracted, whathave you. Immediately underneath it is
an act() which requires a ch pointer for the mob to die. Obviously - you
have to switch the act and die(or extract or whatever) functions so that
it act()'s before its removed. Easy.
Its probably also in the circle mud lists on the
circlemud.org site.
