i got this error....

BUG: Sig handler SIGSEGV

i added a skill... and i know i did it correctly.
it compiles fine but then once i type in my name
it gives that error... any ideas? i'm gonna try some
stuff, but anything would help.

Are you at the limit of the number of skills? In mud.h there is a line:



#define MAX_SKILL 400

You could try making that larger.

weird... i thought i actually did that...
i made sure i did and it worked this time...
maybe in reverting to the old one all the
time made me forget to readd it...

also... let's say i have 300 skills, and
i add a new one, if i increase max_skill to
400 won't it crash because there is not that
many skills yet?

because thats what it seems to me...

No, it shouldn't. That would be the maximum, not the current count. It allocates memory for the skills as they are loaded in.
