Add some simple debugging routines..

Substitute the following code where appropriate in your nanny()

[code]
...
if ((race == 0)
|| (send_to_char("Checking if(!race_table[race].pc_race...\n",ch),!race_table [race].pc_race)
|| (IS_GOOD(ch) && send_to_char("Hey, you're good! ;D\n",ch),!race_table[race].good)
|| (IS_NEUTRAL(ch) && send_to_char("Hey, you're neutral! ;|\n",ch),!race_table[race].neutral)
|| (IS_EVIL(ch) && send_to_char("Hey, you're evil! Muahahaha! >;)\n",ch),!race_table[race].evil))
...[/quote]

and post the output you get when attempting chargen again.

First of all, I wanna apologize for not being able to answer more quickly than this, I've been out of town w/o a connection.

I couldnt even compile those lines...
This is the error messages I get. That's on the stuff I was suppose to try and add to the code.

comm.c: 1786: void value not ignored as it ought to be
comm.c: 1786: warning: left-hand operand of comma expression has no effect
comm.c: 1787: void value not ignored as it ought to be

Please refer to my previous post, and try adding back the code which appears to be missing, and see what happens after that.

Please post the current version of the 3 blocks of code which you posted earlier at my request - namely the 'if' check which is causing the trouble, and the race_table and pc_race_table entries for one race (eg dwarf) labelled so we can see which is which.

I believe that the block in nanny() :
[code] if ((race == 0)
   || (!race_table[race].pc_race)
|| (IS_GOOD(ch) && !race_table[race].good)
|| (IS_NEUTRAL(ch) && !race_table[race].neutral)
   || (IS_EVIL(ch) && !race_table[race].evil))

ch->race = race;
[/quote]

should be

[code] if ((race == 0)
   || (!race_table[race].pc_race)
|| (IS_GOOD(ch) && !race_table[race].good)
|| (IS_NEUTRAL(ch) && !race_table[race].neutral)
   || (IS_EVIL(ch) && !race_table[race].evil))
{
  send_to_char( "Invalid selection.\n\rEnter race name; ", ch );
  return;
}

ch->race = race;
[/quote]

*sigh* I forgot to copy and paste that line again. I have too much commented out atm.... But those lines do not solve my problem.

I don't think it's possible for anybody else to solve the problem if the code we are given to look at is not the code you are actually running.

Best of luck solving the problem on your own.

I'm sorry but I'm not gonna put up my code on the web.
Thanks for trying to assist me with my problem, even tho
we couldnt solve it this time.

heh.. found the problem with the snippet I gave you..

This should work:

[code] if ((race == 0)
|| (send_to_char("Checking if(!race_table[race].pc_race...\n",ch),!race_table [race].pc_race)
|| (IS_GOOD(ch) && (send_to_char("Hey, you're good! ;D\n",ch),!race_table[race].good))
|| (IS_NEUTRAL(ch) && (send_to_char("Hey, you're neutral! ;|\n",ch),!race_table[race].neutral))
|| (IS_EVIL(ch) && (send_to_char("Hey, you're evil! Muahahaha! >;)\n",ch),!race_table[race].evil)))[/quote]

I was missing 3 sets of parenthesis.

Hi Melker -

If Thelenian's latest solution doesn't work, just cut and paste those functions which are in question (the nanny, the race_table, and anything else) to a single file post the file here as a code sample. Those functions would not be enough to replicate your entire sourcecode, nor would they likely function as standalones were someone stupid enough to 'steal' them and paste them into their own source.

Along with that, would you please post a restatement of the specific problem you're having and the desired result you want to achieve. I think I'm not alone in saying that, in light of the amount of responses here, it would benefit everyone to see this reiteration.

No, it doesn't help much.

Yet again you are posting your code showing that you don't have the piece of code I suggested you should add back.

Every time I made the suggestion, you told us the code was really there, you'd just pasted it wrong.

Is that the case again ?
