Yes, that'll work. I've never added a new position before though. You'd start with adding it to mud.h first.

Could add a new effect with the same results maybe, call it 'paralyzed' or something? That way there'd be no conflict. I just have absolutely no clue how to go about this.

I'm not sure that could cause problems, but yes. There should be a function that stops fights, you could add it in there.

[EDIT] I have a feeling it will cause big problems. The stun position is also used when a person gets below 1 health.

Hmm, so it should be easy enough to add a line that changes the player's position back when the effect wears off, right?

After the fight:

Testing the Overlord is lying here stunned.

Like you said, it's still stunned after the affect wears off. But the affect is not the only thing that stun adds. It also changes the players position. And the players position doesn't update until a tick outside of battle, where in combat it instantly sets the position to fighting.

Yeah, it works fine IN combat... It's when combat ends during the stun affect that it messes up.

Even after the affect wears off? I'm pretty sure that doesn't happen to me. I'm also using FUSS. When the affect wears off, it's fine. I'll check into it when I get home.

[EDIT] It's fine for me on stock FUSS.
