Awwe, compile error:

Maybe I missed something or messed something up while adjusting the formatting. All I really did was change the double spaces to tabs to make it uniform with the source code. I am going to check it over again and see if I can figure it out. Seems like it should work, since the doors code right above it is almost the exact same thing. BTW, that command in command.cpp is massive!

Here is the bit of code it is referring to:

	while(iterator.MoreElements())
	{
		Object* object=iterator.GetData();

		object->GetLocation(&ox, &oy, &oz);

		if ((abs(ox - x) <= radius) && (abs(oy - y) <= radius) && (abs(oz - z) <= radius))
		{
			return object;
		}
		iterator.Advance();
	}

Maybe it is just an issue with my libraries or gcc or kernel or something. I don't really know.

I've hit this in my "trying to learn C++ adventure". The *_s functions are Microsoft only. For sprintf_s you might try the POSIX snprintf:

int snprintf(char *str, size_t size, const char *format, ...);

   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

       snprintf(), vsnprintf(): _BSD_SOURCE || _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 500 ||
       _ISOC99_SOURCE; or cc -std=c99

 The  functions  snprintf()  and  vsnprintf()  write  at most size bytes
       (including the trailing null byte ('\0')) to str.

This is from the man pages with glibc version 2.2

Note that I moved the code related portion of this thread into the Server Code Submissions section here:

http://www.eqemulator.net/forums/showthread.php?t=28916

Code related discussion should go there and any other comments on it should go here to keep the code thread as clean as possible.

P.S. I can't wait to try this command out once it compiles properly in Linux!

hey guys can you only use objects from .eqg files or can you use em from .s3d files also. If so how do you add from an s3d file as they never show up do you add the whole line like CAMPFIRE_DMSPRITEDEF in the doors table

or do you just add CAMPFIRE or do you skip the DM and do CAMPFIRE_SPRITEDEF

[trevius]

For most objects (maybe all of them), you need to add _ACTORDEF to the end of the name for them to work. So, "CAMPFIRE" becomes "CAMPFIRE_ACTORDEF".

Also, you might want to use s3dspy or the global model viewer to find your models for objects. The .mod files are the ones you want. Another thing is to make sure you always add the name in all capitals or they won't work.

[Bellos]

so for CAMPFIRE its CAMPFIRE_ACTORDEF not SPRITEDEF right and only .mod files can be used?


And you can use objects from s3d and eqg right not just eqg?
