Unless a snippet/patch already exists at ftp.circlemud.org, I doubt that you will get much help here. I would be more than happy to help you out myself, since I've already done the same thing, but I have WAY too much to do, both coding and RL. All I can offer in terms of help is a bit of advice and a pointer or three. ADVICE) Unless you have a FIRM grasp on your OLC system, don't attempt to add ANYTHING to it. If you want to learn how your OLC works (assuming you have a working one) , read the source, then read the source, then read the source, ad nauseum. After you have read it half-a-million times (perhaps a few more than that), try adding another module. In the case of OasisOLC 2.0, I would suggest adding the action editor patch by hand. This will help you to understand how the modules work. POINTER) Search your files for every instance of 'AFF_' and emulate how it works. I can't go beyond that, because common-sense plays a large factor in coding. POINTER2) ALWAYS work with a backup. If you crash and burn, its always nice to have. In my early coding stages I went through several code- bases in short order. Especially when adding "new and original" features. POINTER3) Search the circlemud FTP site often. Most of the time you will find useful info there that may help you in your future quests. G'luck! -FIRE ===== ************************************** * "Mommy!
