Forcing a wiz to @toadplayer (SF Issue)
tanabi opened this issue · 3 comments
Attempting to go around the lack of toad player prim via
wizz "@toad whomever" force
crashes the muck.
This code crashes it:
: cleanupguest
5 sleep
me @ "@/guest" getpropstr strlen 0 = if "You're not a guest,
you almost got recycled, fun, fun, keep up the good work"
abort then
me @ awake? 0 > if "You are misusing this program." abort then
prog "_usercount" getpropval 1 - prog swap "_usercount" swap
setprop
forcewizz "@toad " me @ name strcat force
forcewizz "@recycle #" me @ intostr strcat force
;
Figured out it is actually a bug in recycling the leftover
slimy toad left behind.
...
When the command to @toad the player runs, all of that
player's programs should be removed from the timequeue,
including the one that's currently running. Thus, it should
not proceed past the initial @toading.
And if you want the TOADPLAYER primitive, recompile the
server with SCARY_MUF_PRIMS set in config.h.
The best thing to do would be to @force the wizard to run a
program that would @force him to do the toad, and then the
@rec. This would prevent the current program from having
issues.
I'm thinking about how this code is structured, and what
it's supposed to do... not easy, since I don't know the
interpreter that well yet.
Once I found this out, I started trying to enclose those commands in backticks, like @who. I think this suppresses the notification... I don't always remember though!
Sorry about that! I was copying a ton of issues over from an old SF project and unfortunately our system's commands feature the @ symbol all over the place. I probably should have escaped the whole thing in backticks.
