Title: #define invitem
Post by: Radiant on Mon 15/03/2004 14:05:24

I put the following code in my header:

#define invitem character[EGO].activeinv

Now whenever I reference 'invitem', the compiler gives an error:
unknown variable: EGO

Is this a limitation of #define? I thought EGO was an internal variable.

EGO is a #define constant itself and #define's are not evaluated recursively.

Okay. So what is it defined to, then I can do the recursion myself.

EGO will be #defined as the character number of the EGO character - if it's the first character, this will be 0.
