| I can't seem to find any documentation on this relatively simple task, so I figured I'd ask the wise denizens of Gammon's space. :)
How do I change the room vnum where new players spawn? Running smaugFUSS.

| In mud.h find:
#define ROOM_VNUM_SCHOOL 10300
#define ROOM_AUTH_START 100
and change them as desired. The first one is where players start if you turn player authorization off in cset and the second one is the room they start in if player authorization is turned on. |

| | Thanks gents. Princes among men. One other novice question: after editing .c files in smaugFUSS/src/, do I have to have to use MAKE in cygwin to make the changes final? | | Top |

| Sorry for these noobish questions, guys.
I edited the vnum and saved the mud.h file in VIM. I opened cygwin, went to the smaugFUSS/src directory, and typed "make". I then had "make -s smaug" show. I rebooted the MUD and tried it and the new vnum isn't being used.
I'm almost sure this is a newbie programming problem related to compiling or something. Any suggestions? | | Top |

| | If you edit .h files, you need to make clean. |
