Kayle's logic. move_char() is a pretty big catch-all function for an awful lot of things. Fleeing being one, pulltypes another, and I'm sure there's probably other stuff that hasn't been noticed yet. Basically it would disrupt anything where the assumption is the move will happen regardless. So fixing the problem in the auto-exit code looks like the better option. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/movechar-bug-with-positions-4436/&p=20897#p20897 Mon, 2 Aug 2010 20:30:35 CDT SWR FUSS nobody@example.com (Samson) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/movechar-bug-with-positions-4436/&p=20893#p20893 My/Sharmair's fix only affects auto-exits. Applying the original fix will disrupt flee. I dunno about pulltypes, I would assume it would disrupt those as well though. That's why I was uneasy about applying the fix to move_char, too many things use move_char that fixing it directly in there will break things other than fixing just the issue, if you apply a targeted fix, for instance, a check_pos() call in the interpret function in the section for auto-exits, you fix the issue, without brea https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/movechar-bug-with-positions-4436/&p=20893#p20893 Mon, 2 Aug 2010 20:08:00 CDT SWR FUSS nobody@example.com (InfiniteAxis) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/movechar-bug-with-positions-4436/&p=20892#p20892 Aint hindsight wonderous? ;) So, does this address things like being pulled through an exit by room settings ([color=purple]See also help[/color] [color=yellow]PULLTYPES[/color]) as well as flee, being dragged, etc now? https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/movechar-bug-with-positions-4436/&p=20892#p20892 Mon, 2 Aug 2010 20:01:54 CDT SWR FUSS nobody@example.com (Conner) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/movechar-bug-with-positions-4436/&p=20890#p20890 [quote=Conner]Sorry, Kayle, I'm pretty much in the same boat over here.
