Ok, here's what I got. I'm trying to make a call command to call a public ship to a landing pad.. right now i am in testing phases and i know this code is incomplete as far as checking room flags...

Here is the code.

void do_call( CHAR_DATA *ch, char * argument)
{
    SHIP_DATA *ship;

    for ( ship = first_ship; ship; ship = ship->next )
    {
	if ( !str_cmp( ship->owner , "Public" ) && !IS_SET(ship->flags, SHIP_SIMULATOR ) )
	{
	    if (ship->class > CAPITAL_SHIP)
		continue;
	    if (ship->type == MOB_SHIP)
		continue;
	    transship(ship, ch->in_room->vnum);
	}
    }
}


Now what it is doing is calling all the public ships into the room, I want it to call a random public ship to the room, or call them in order each time the command is issued. I'm not sure if there is a function that will pull one from the list alone. any help will be apprieciated.

Either change your for loop check from just 'ship' to something more appropriate, or break from the loop once you a acquire an unused ship.
