K this isn't going to fix your problem your going to need to do some
detective work with gdb and that to find out WHY it's sending a PC as a mob
to that function but in my code I have a check in there to prevent it from
doing damage. But like I said you'll need to do some hunting around to find
out why it's doing it.
if ( mob )
{
if ( !IS_NPC(mob) )
{
log( "p_act_trig: mob is a PC." );
return;
}
Add that is_npc check right after it opens the if mob part. That will
atlease catch it and back out. But won't correct the problem will just end
up spamming your logs everytime it happens.

Subject: RE: Problem with Note Board
I wrote a note as one character and did an action with
my other character Vladia and this is what I got from
printing the mob name.
(gdb) print mob->name
$1 = 0xb7c82c08 "Vladia"
My character's name is Vladia.
When I type list it gives me:
(gdb) list
2179 return;
2180 }
2181
2182 if ( mob )
2183 {
2184 for ( prg = mob->pIndexData->mprogs;
prg != NULL; prg = prg->nex
t )
2185 {
2186 if ( prg->trig_type == type
2187 && strstr( argument,
prg->trig_phrase ) != NULL )
2188 {
(gdb) list
2189 program_flow( prg->vnum,
prg->code, mob, NULL, NULL, ch,
arg1, arg2 );
2190 break;
2191 }
2192 }
2193 }
2194 else if ( obj )
2195 {
2196 for ( prg = obj->pIndexData->oprogs;
prg != NULL; prg = prg->nex
t )
2197 {
2198 if ( prg->trig_type == type
(gdb)
So it is the character... I'm not sure where to go
from here -- do you want me to send you our
mob_progs.c or the p_act_trigger() function? Thanks
again...
