Re: eq slots

Here's how I did it... just make a list in the order you want the
items to appear.

int     const wear_order[] =
{
  WEAR_FLOAT,
  WEAR_LIGHT,
  WEAR_HEAD,
  WEAR_NECK_1,
  WEAR_NECK_2,
  WEAR_ABOUT,
  WEAR_TORSO,
  WEAR_ARMS,
  WEAR_SHIELD,
  WEAR_WRIST_L,
  WEAR_WRIST_R,
  WEAR_HANDS,
  WEAR_FINGER_L,
  WEAR_FINGER_R,
  WEAR_HOLD,
  WEAR_WIELD,
  WEAR_WIELD2,
  WEAR_WAIST,
  WEAR_LEGS,
  WEAR_FEET
};

Then loop through that list and show all the objects in that order...

void do_equipment( CHAR_DATA *ch, char *argument )
{
    OBJ_DATA *obj;
    int iWear;

    send_to_char( "You are using:\n\r", ch );
    for ( iWear = 0; iWear < MAX_WEAR; iWear++ )
    {
        if ((obj = get_eq_char(ch, wear_order[iWear])) == NULL)
          chprintf(ch, "%s (empty)\n\r", where_name[iWear]);
        else
        {
          send_to_char( where_name[iWear], ch );
          if ( can_see_obj( ch, obj ) )
            chprintf(ch, "%s%s\n\r", where_name[iWear],
format_obj_to_char( obj, ch, TRUE ));
          else
            chprintf(ch, "%s Something\n\r", where_name[iWear]);
        }
    }
}

Something like that...
