You have
victim->pcdata->buffer
but you should really be getting the buffer of the player who killed the
mob,
not the mob's buffer (which does not exist since it does not have pcdata).
I would put the if( ) check in stop_fighting( ) so you will display the
message to anyone who killed the mob (if they were a group).
for ( fch = char_list; fch != NULL; fch = fch->next )
{
if ( fch == ch || ( fBoth && fch->fighting == ch ) )
{
fch->fighting = NULL;
fch->position = IS_NPC(fch) ? fch->default_pos : POS_STANDING;
update_pos( fch );
+ if( !IS_NPC(fch) && buf_string(fch->pcdata->buffer)[0] != '\0' )
+ send_to_char( "You receives tells during fighting, type
`replay.'\n\r";
}
}
That should do the trick.
A minor remarks:
buf[0] = UPPER(buf[0]);
was used to uppercase the name of the sender.
Since you added colour code in front, you would have to change it to
buf[14] = UPPER(buf[14]);
or
capitalize your PERS after it return a string.
