That is what I expected, but couldn't find a referance to quest::faction in the code. but granted I couldn't find a referance for the old qst faction command even though I used it when I coverted the ethernalquest quests months ago.

"sub faction{push(@cmd_queue,{func=>'faction',args=>joi n(',',@_)});}"
to the bottom of embparser.cpp and recompile to use it in your Perl quests. If I'm interpreting Wes's code correctly, then the appropriate syntax for the function is "faction(faction id, amount)"

hah! knew I didn't find it in the perl parser That and you didn't support it in your qst-to-pl perl script. Quick note on that perl conversion script, it seems to add an I at the ends of "if($text=~/name/i);" type statments and had ;; instead of ; at the end of everything was that intentional?

Ok, I request that someone get that line merged in to the CVS source.
