heh, so long as everything has a weight of 1 they can't carry that much.
Put a few UMAX() macros in the DB boot.. load_objects or something,
after the fread_number for the weight do something like this:
obj->weight = UMAX(1, obj->weight);
Also might wanna check save.c: fread_obj cuz it will assign the weight
to objects not found in the database.. change the KEY() to something
like:
if (!str_cmp(word, "Weight")) {
fMatch = TRUE;
obj->weight = fread_number(fp);
obj->weight = UMAX(1, obj->weight);
break;
}
I guess that's the easiest way without having to make a local var and
read the number to that then assign it to the object weight o_O
Hm, I wonder if it's a string space problem or it just takes so long to
process the loop that the server kills the process.. had that happen to
me before.. try purging 10k objects sitting in a room ;p
whatever.. I need food.
