Greetings, I had this idea to let players rename themselves after they had chosen their race and class, etc, as the name you think up at the login prompt isn't always appropriate for the choices you make later.
Easy, I thought, as most of it's in the nanny. Oops. I'd forgotten that the nanny takes the easy way out of preventing duplicate player names by simply loading the file, if found, and asking for the pword. So, now I need to figure out how to get a list of player names that I can compare to the new name argument. File handling from within the MUD isn't exactly my strong point, so I thought I'd ask for suggestions. Thanks, Sandi
