I would add it to the function char_check, which periodically checks every character:




/*
 * Function to check important stuff happening to a player
 * This function should take about 5% of mud cpu time
 */
void char_check( void )
{

... [snip] ....


    if ( IS_NPC( ch ) )
    {

... [snip mob handling stuff] ....


    }
    else
    {

    pl_update (ch);
