Subject: Diety worship system
Greetings. What follows is my attempt at a working worship/god system
that allows players to pick
a god to worship at creation (I have this restricted by alignment and
even class, you may not want to do this). Once this god is picked,
there is a pray channel that allows them to 'pray' to their god, and
anyone else who has the same god can also get the messages. Whenever
you sacrifice something, it goes to your god instead of 'Mota', or
whatever you've set that to. I also (slightly) modified the mset
command (just set mob etc...) so that you can set a characters god
from inside the game. However, this is not restricted by alighment or
class (to allow for special RP situations). Also, the god you worship
shows up in your score.
A word of warning: I couldn't make a conventional patch for this
because our code is modified enough from stock that the line numbers
would be way off, so where it's ambiguous as to where to insert the
code, I'll try and put lines before and after the insert.
NOTE: all the {B and {y and basically {x in anything that's printed is
Lope's colo(u)r code. If you have it, great. If you don't, just delete
all that stuff. The colour codes are { and the _one_ character
following.
My comments on the code should be enclosed in < >.
Without further ado:
/* Jair's diety worship system, by implementing this code you are under
no obligation to credit myself for anything or notify me at all;
however, if you wish to give me credit, I'll be thrilled */

Ok, that should be it. The reason that I'm sending this to the mailing
list is because I looked around (pretty extensively) for a system like
this to use on my mud and didn't find one. I know that plenty of other
people have coded something similar on their muds, I've played on a
couple, but I thought I'd throw this up for everyone to use. If anyone
wants to put this on their web/ftp page of snippets, great!
Now, I know that I don't have a realy firm grasp on a lot of the things
that I'm coding, does anyone suggestions/ideas/flames/etc?

Fix

void fwrite_char at the tail end add line with +.
fprintf( fp, "Affc '%s' %3d %3d %3d %3d %3d %10d\n",
skill_table[paf->type].name,
paf->where,
paf->level,
paf->duration,
paf->modifier,
paf->location,
paf->bitvector
);
}
+ fprintf(fp,"God %s~\n",god_table[ch->god].name);
fprintf( fp, "End\n\n" );
return;
}
and in Case G of void fread_char add line with +.
KEY( "Ghos", ch->ghost_level, fread_number( fp ) );
+ KEY( "God", ch->god, god_lookup(fread_string( fp )) );
KEY( "Gold", ch->gold, fread_number( fp ) );
this should allow gods to be saved and loaded from pfile after log off...
its my guess that these 2 lines were just accidently left out...
