Personally, I used something like this to have some flexibility:
UMAX((ch)->wait, ((IS_IMMORTAL(ch) && xIS_SET(ch->act, PLR_NODELAY)) ? 0 :(npulse)))

Yeah, thats almost exactly what I have
#define WAIT_STATE(ch, npulse)	((ch)->wait = UMAX((ch)->wait, (IS_IMMORTAL(ch) ? 0 :(npulse))))
As for the engineerings skills, this is what I used in add_timer in handler.c. Should be fairly obvious where to put it.
        if (!timer)
        {
                CREATE(timer, TIMER, 1);
                timer->count = count;
                if (IS_IMMORTAL(ch))
                        timer->count = 0;
                timer->type = type;
                timer->do_fun = fun;
                timer->value = value;
                LINK(timer, ch->first_timer, ch->last_timer, next, prev);
        }

With no testing, mind you, something like this should work:

#define WAIT_STATE(ch, npulse) ( (ch)->wait= (UMAX( (ch)->wait, (IS_IMMORTAL(ch) ? 0 :(npulse) ) ) ) )

Well, with that specific snippet, its for a different code base and probably won't work that way. Check what field stock swr looks for and use that instead of nuisance.

As for the make skills, that still won' work, as they don't use wait states. Look at the code for add_timer for the engineering skills.

If your still havign issues with the wait state (also a good thing to have) I can check my code when I get home from work to give you a definite example.

Also when i do replace what consists of the wait_state with what the snippet suggests.. then try to recompile i get these errors

Administrator@Home ~/swr1fuss/src
$ make
make -s swreality
Compiling o/swskills.o....
swskills.c: In function `do_bribe':
swskills.c:4322: error: structure has no member named `nuisance'
swskills.c:4322: error: structure has no member named `nuisance'
swskills.c:4322: error: structure has no member named `nuisance'
swskills.c:4322: error: structure has no member named `nuisance'
swskills.c:4322: error: structure has no member named `nuisance'
swskills.c:4322: error: structure has no member named `nuisance'
make[1]: *** [o/swskills.o] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

Any ideas?

there are more than just do_bribe.. but too much to list in
one post.. and they are the same kind of errors so if you
can tell me how to fix the one then i can do the rest

*edit*
The other errors are also with commands that have no wait to them.. like snipe and beg...

I got tired of waiting for all of my make_*** commands to get done... Im an immortal they should be done the second i enter the command..

So i went into the net and found this snippet of saqid's

To make it so that immortals never are affected by WAIT_STATE (no code-generated
lag), you just need to make this simple addition to WAIT_STATE:

in MUD.H, find the following...

#define WAIT_STATE(ch, npulse) ((ch)->wait=(!IS_NPC(ch)&&ch->pcdata->nuisance&&\
                              (ch->pcdata->nuisance->flags>4))?UMAX((ch)->wait,\
                              (npulse+((ch)->pcdata->nuisance->flags-4)+ \
                              ch->pcdata->nuisance->power)): \
                              UMAX((ch)->wait, (npulse)))


And change it to look like this:

#define WAIT_STATE(ch, npulse) ((ch)->wait=(!IS_NPC(ch)&&ch->pcdata->nuisance&&\
                              (ch->pcdata->nuisance->flags>4))?UMAX((ch)->wait,\
                              (npulse+((ch)->pcdata->nuisance->flags-4)+ \
                              ch->pcdata->nuisance->power)): \
                              UMAX((ch)->wait, (IS_IMMORTAL(ch) ? 0 :(npulse))))


Make clean, and recompile.


however when i search in mud.h for what it says to find its not there what i find instead is..

#define WAIT_STATE(ch, npulse) ((ch)->wait = UMAX((ch)->wait, (npulse)))
