First I am wondering if anyone knows where to find a smaug codebase with Overland already installed? Or if someone with Overland installed could send me their act_info.c file? I know im missing something simple when it comes to fixing the arguments to calls like obj_to_room and move_char, i just need to see some examples and I know I could get it.
Next, I've been searching high and low for a way to change how often the prompt is displayed. I'm looking for code, or a way to have the prompt only displayed when theres a tic or change in the prompt? This reduces spam and its a nifty little feature i've only seen on a few circlemuds. If anyone could point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it!

Thanks in advance
josh

The prompt is displayed in comm.c in the display_prompt function, called from flush_buffer. You could remove the reference there, and add it into the tick routine, or wherever you like.
