Zach,
The source of this problem is the fact that mob files and player
files are very different. Players have a lot more info, and if a
command asks for player-only info from a mob, down you go.
I "fixed" it so mobs could see colour and use channels, but now
newbie IMMs invariably crash us experimenting with 'switch', as I
never finished the process. It's big job, and I found coding things
for players was more important. :)
I guess my advice is, if you start, have a clear rule in mind,
"You can do this, but not this.", so your staff can grasp what's
what. Talking about descriptors and CHAR_DATA doesn't convey much
to a non-coder.
