You could find Erwin's unlimited buffer system and use it. (I didn't like it, so I wrote my own) Should fix you right up. Another thing you might want to watch is the output variable in your descriptor data...if you spit too much at that, you'll discon your players.

If anyone needs my alist code, I can post it. It has a lot of info in it, and that's why I assumed it was the buffer. I was only able to show about 176 areas, then I removed a small piece of data from each line, (I took out the filename) and now I can get 204 areas to print. It has to do with SOMETHINGS size :P Any other suggestions? I'm stumped.

If you look at void do_list, all it is doing is grabbing area_first, printing out some stat's, and then getting the next area, printing out some stats, getting the next... I think you get the point. The only buffers in there are the char arrays used to output to screen. area_first is just the pointer to the first area in the linked list. Like I said, I don't know the actual problem, but my guess is it has to do with how things are getting inserted into the list somewhere. Then again, if that is the problem, not all areas would get updated (at least in my code, the only place outside of OLC that the areas are cycled through is in area_update). Hopefully this helped to some minor extent, though I know it probably isn't what you were hoping for. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Keith Mervine Sent: Monday, December 09, 2002 6:45 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Buffer size Greetings, I had a problem with my alist command. I have well over 250 areas and the alist command only lists 178 or so. I figure it's the size of buffer. How does one increase the buffer size. Ive tried the following In recycle.c /* buffer sizes */ const int buf_size[MAX_BUF_LIST] = { 16,32,64,128,256,1024,2048,4096,8192,16384,32768 }; I added the new one 32768 In recycle.h Changed MAX_BUF_LIST and MAX_BUF From #define MAX_BUF 16384 #define MAX_BUF_LIST 10 to #define MAX_BUF 32768 #define MAX_BUF_LIST 11 When I do a fresh make..open the mud and go into the command that I changed it for. Nothing happens. Except the CPU goes up. Am I missing something?
