I'm importing the istagged and isflagged with variables to be able to assign variables to players I'm getting this error when compiling [code]variables.c:585: warning: passing arg 1 of `free' discards qualifiers from pointer target type [/code] this is the section of code [code] case 'E': if( !str_cmp( word, "End" ) ) { switch ( pvd->type ) { https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/calareymud-coding-help-4736/&p=23201#p23201 Wed, 18 Sep 2013 11:19:16 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (mystickdreamer) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/calareymud-coding-help-4736/&p=23193#p23193 yw and thanks :) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/calareymud-coding-help-4736/&p=23193#p23193 Fri, 13 Sep 2013 08:57:50 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (Remcon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/calareymud-coding-help-4736/&p=23184#p23184 Ah so just make sure everything lines up I will definitely keep that in mind and try to format it correctly thank you https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/calareymud-coding-help-4736/&p=23184#p23184 Tue, 10 Sep 2013 09:40:40 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (mystickdreamer) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/calareymud-coding-help-4736/&p=23183#p23183 You have [code] void do_invoke( CHAR_DATA * ch, char *argument ) { OBJ_DATA *fire, *shard; bool found; int mana; if( !can_use_skill( ch, 0, gsn_invoke ) ) { send_to_char( "A skill such as this requires more magical ability than you have.\n\r", ch ); return; } if( argument[0] == '\0' ) { send_to_char( "Invoke which element?\n\r", ch); return; } mana = (ch->max_mana / 5); if( !str_cmp( argument, "fireshard" ) ) { found = FALSE; https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/calareymud-coding-help-4736/&p=23183#p23183 Tue, 10 Sep 2013 04:43:21 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (Remcon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/calareymud-coding-help-4736/&p=23182#p23182 please explain about the format I mean I understand what the word format means, but I fail to see what I did wrong in the format https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/calareymud-coding-help-4736/&p=23182#p23182 Mon, 9 Sep 2013 22:53:54 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (mystickdreamer) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/calareymud-coding-help-4736/&p=23181#p23181 have it set an obj->timer on creation and in what ever they use to charge it you can have it increase the timer. The code doesn't look to bad, but please pay attention to how you format your code :) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/calareymud-coding-help-4736/&p=23181#p23181 Mon, 9 Sep 2013 22:13:05 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (Remcon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/calareymud-coding-help-4736/&p=23180#p23180 I would also like to get some suggestions on how to put a timer on the object so the object disappears, but have the timer removed if the character charges the item with mana so basically I want the object to disappear if the player doesn't charge it with mana. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/calareymud-coding-help-4736/&p=23180#p23180 Mon, 9 Sep 2013 22:06:27 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (mystickdreamer) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/calareymud-coding-help-4736/&p=23178#p23178 Ok I have coded a section of code that lets users invoke a fire and make a fireshard (gem type thing) I would like opinions on how I could have coded it better and why would that be better please if ya'll don't mind [code] void do_invoke( CHAR_DATA * ch, char *argument ) { OBJ_DATA *fire, *shard; bool found; int mana; if( !can_use_skill( ch, 0, gsn_invoke ) ) { send_to_char( "A skill such as this requires more magical ability than you have.\n\r", ch ); https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/calareymud-coding-help-4736/&p=23178#p23178 Mon, 9 Sep 2013 19:45:50 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (mystickdreamer)
