Do you add the correct line to mud.h and the 2 lines to tables.c for do_hotboot?

Look over how other commands are in. Search for like do_look in mud.h and tables.c or search for the forums for how to add the lines.

Actually i put it in mud.h and tables.c but when i went to
compile it turned out they were already there. I had my friend who was a coder look at it and he didn't know, he said that it could be working and it may not be looking at the if( skill == do_hotboot )
return "do_hotboot";

Can you show us the lines you put in/already in about hotboot in mud.h and tables.c?

Also did you remember to include hotboot.c in your makefile if you have one?

tables.c the only line i added was:

if( skill == do_hotboot )
return "do_hotboot";

there are also some other thing in tables.c that were there that include hotboot.

mud.h has hotboot stuff in it, it didn't have:

DECLARE_DO_FUN( do_hotboot );

but if i try to add that when i compile i get:
$ make
make -s smaug
Compiling o/imc.o....
In file included from imc.c:45:
mud.h:3763: warning: redundant redeclaration of 'do_hotboot'
hotboot.h:40: warning previous declaration of 'do_hotboot' was here
make[1]: *** [o/imc.o] Error1
make: *** [all] Error 2

Make sure there are only 2 lines about hotboot in tables.c, and get rid of the line in mud.h since it's already in hotboot.c, then try it.

I tried taking this out of tables.c and using the other:

if( skill == do_hotboot )
return "do_hotboot";

then the same with:

if( !str_cmp( name, "do_hotboot" ) )
return do_hotboot;

still didn't work, i took the line out of mud.h before you just wanted the error message, however in mud.h there are other lines that talk about "hotboot"

Every time i change something in the code, make clean, make
and reboot it still doesn't work which is probably one of the problems. I tested this with wizlock by changing the wizlock message and no matter what i do it won't take the new message.

Hm, what are you using? Cygwin or a shell? Are you sure you're running the correct exec file? Can you show me the line you changed for wizlock?
