Is there an easy way to compare two bitvectors and find what the difference
is between the two?
For example:
character A has AFF_BLIND|AFF_CURSE|AFF_BERSERK
character B has AFF_BLIND
Could I use a bitwise operator to fill a variable with
AFF_CURSE|AFF_BERSERK since both chars dont have them? Would something
like diff = (charA aff) ^ (charB aff) work?
Or would it just be easier to use a function to scroll through each affect
and use a if (IS_AFFECTED(A, (1<<x))==IS_AFFECTED(B, (1<<x))) check?
