Ok, this one just cropped up recently. And it's ticking me off! :]
Here's the problem. Every now and then, players will be overwritin in the
players. file with one character. Say there was originally 10 different
players. In the pfile I will in the first slot, and another character
record will overwrite the other 9 slots.
After dumping the pfile, I had some users relogon. Now, there is like 80
users. It's kinda big, but I'll put the screen capture of the user list
below, because there is a pattern to it. I DID use the advance cmd. to put
the players back where they were, so, that might have somethign to do with it.
Also, I introduced new classes as well.
I'm running Win95, the MUD is running on a Win95 Compressed HDD (I HATE it,
but I can't afford a new HDD, and it's a small one .. :] the problem was
there before compression though) using Borland C 5.0 commandline compiler,
and the only patches I can think of that might have done this in some weird
way is the races.patch, 'cause that's the only one that affected the
player_data struct, etc.
Any help would be apreciated.
