Ok, same problem a little different now. The spells aren't working even when I reroll now, when I wait for the update to complete.. I guess it's an error with a stat somewhere, so it's probably my fault.. Once I find it, I'll tell you guys. Thanks for the help :D

Ok, I admit it. I'm a dick.



I figured out my later problem.



Thanks to syn and zan, though. The powers were messed up because I was overwriting the spell and user dat file. The whole thing is fixed now. My second problem (the powers not working) is because the race i was using I gave kaibind too, and forgot about it.. silly me. Sorry. :D



Thanks again for the help, you'll be hearing from me again, no doubt, on another stupid problem. Keep on mudding.

Ive personally never had problems with editing in real time. I have a low userbase right now so I guess I am safe with doing this. I am sure in the future ill be shutting her down before applying an update but it works for now. This is the 2nd board I am running. The first always ran fine and I have 20 characters on it at a time and nothing ever happened. I took that one down and now my new one is up and almost back to the old ones former glory.



Listen to Syn. though he knows what hes doing cause its HIS stuff :)

Zan - I do the same thing you do, with 40+ users on, and I do it 3 or 4 times a day and it NEVER messes up. Occasionally edits don't take effect immediately, but usually with a cleanup they will. Or some things just require killin off the old things then at next regen time the new things come in. Maybe I've just been lucky, but I can't see why people always say editing while the board is up and putting the update in, etc is bad. Never caused any problems for me.

dxpac666... great boards must think alike :) on the fly updates and no crashes :D
