So I'm working with AFKmud 2.03, bone stock right now. We're trying to build a world, but the problem we run into, is Extra Descriptions won't save when using Redit. I'm not using Multiports, just regular 1 port, building on this port for the time being, as we're not live, and not 100% sure if we're going to stick with the code base.

If anyone has some hints, it'd be greatly appreciated. We're running on a Fedora 5 server.

How exactly do you mean they won't save?

You enter them through redit ed, and they don't save to the room, or the file. Meaning, after you close the editor with /s, it doesn't show up in the room. This happens in Proto Areas, and in installed areas. I'm really not sure if it's something I'm doing wrong...or if I did something wrong in compiling.

I've yet to try just straight modifying the file though, and seeing if that makes it stick.

Works for me.
redit ed
Create an extra description.
You must supply keyword(s).

[30000hp 30836m 30000mv] [1exp]
redit ed floor
Begin entering your text now (/? = help /s = save /c = clear /l = list)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

You look at the floor.
>
/s


l floor
You look at the floor.

Also works for me too. Can't very well fix a bug that can't be replicated.
