It compiled, but with errors?

This is SMAUG 1.4a MXP.
I use Linux Ubuntu Edgy Eft 6.10.

I'm not sure if the errors are harmless or not.

Those are warnings, not errors. It will run with them, but is better to fix the warnings I suppose.

Why not use FUSS though?

Thanks, I just realized that they are warnings :P

I have FUSS, and it runs and compiles very nicely, but I have this problem with it not letting me make new areas...aassign is the only assign that works. Unless of course I messed up somewhere?

You should be using vassign.

OMG I am dumb, thanks it works. Now my problems are solved :) thanks again

I'm guessing that the use of vassign needs to be more widely published :)

It sure does sound that way. :(
Maybe in the stock codebase the helpfiles and command.dat entries for aasign should be removed/rewritten to refer to vassign for primary use?

hey i'm compiling rom on 6.10 and i'm getting some of the same warnings. these specifically:

comm.c:944: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 3 of âgetsocknameâ differ in signedness
comm.c:945: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 3 of âacceptâ differ in signedness
comm.c:981: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 3 of âgetpeernameâ differ in signedness

any idea on how to fix those?

Wrong section.

And once again, those are only warnings. It should still compile.
