Think I discoverd the problem with our profession. It was all database related.

LOL, but shouldn't it be,

for (i=0;i < gDevs.length;i++){
if (gDev[i].knowledgeAboutRiflemen > 0){
printf("You should never see this line of text");
}
}

Of course "i" would probably initialized with 1 if SOE did it, resulting in a good chance of the last dev knowing something about riflemen.

Hope it works Less than and greater than symbols trigger the no html tags filter.

I dunno obi, think the SOE programmers actualy use C++? maybe they're still stuck in good old fortran 77:

subrutine Check_Dev_Status(bdevclue, INUMDEVS)
uses Cold_Day_In_Hell

for i = 0 to INUMDEVS
if (bdevclue[i])
call Cold_Day_In_Hell

end

(note since it was writen by SOE all variable deffinitions are implicit, blocks are ambiguous, and end statement has unspecified association. and for all you who are lucky enough not to know fortran, i and INUMDEVS are implicitly integer, and bdevclue is implicitly boolean - in some compilers, and the end goes with subrutine Check_Dev_Status)

*note it's not my fault if this stupid forum screws up my tabbing.

How many of the devs do you think grinding to master rifleman?


It should be obvious by now: -zero-
