Just to say, the bug was fixed, was a simple mistake in disposing of data. I was just copying and pasting, and forgot to change one of them it seems. Either way, its fixed.

Thanks David, didn't even know about valgrind... heh. Makes life a lil easier i tell ya that much.

You probably have a double free somewhere, or perhaps a stack overflow that is corrupting the pointer that is being freed. Do you have access to valgrind? That would be the easiest way to find it.

Basically, the problem just randomly began to occur. So I'm wondering if this problem is located in comm.c or skills.c?
Also, to cause this i just did a manual boot. Which seems to be causing the same problem.

Also could this problem be caused by skills.dat?
Cheers for the help in advance guys...
