Collectible Card Game Headquarters

Hi, i'm trying to make some cards but i don`t wanna mess with other developers address blocks so i wanna "claim" the block 2,105,000 - 2,200,000, just after harrypitfall.
The problem is, when i change "build.pl" and i compile it, it still points to
address 20024BA (5 more than the previous address).

Code: Select all

use strict;

use warnings;
use File::Copy;

# Open ManalinkEh.asm and add in the new card / function
my $new_function = $ARGV[0];
if( $new_function ){
my $skip = 0;
$new_function  = "_card_$new_function";
my $extern = 0;
my $jmp = 0;
my $hex;
open my $fh, '<', 'ManalinkEh.asm';
my @lines;
while( my $line = <$fh>){
    if( $line =~ $new_function and not $skip ){
        print "You already added that card.\n";
        $skip = 1;
    }
    if( $line =~ /extern/ ){ $extern = 1; }
    if( $extern and $line !~ /extern/ and not $skip){
        push @lines, "extern $new_function\n";
        $extern = 0;
    }
    if( $line =~ /jmp near/ ){
        $jmp = 1;
        ($hex) =  $line =~ /;\s+([A-Z0-9]+)/i;
    }
    if( $jmp and $line !~ /jmp near/ and not $skip){
        my $a = eval( "0x020024BF" );      -----------------> here's my change
        my $new_hex = sprintf "%x", $a;
        push @lines, "  jmp near $new_function     ; $new_hex\n";
        $jmp = 0;
        print "Adding $new_function at $new_hex\n";
    }
    push @lines, $line;
}
close $fh;

# Re-write the file
open $fh, '>', 'ManalinkEh.asm';
print { $fh } @lines;
close $fh;

}

# Run make
`make`;

# Copy the new dll to the magic directory
copy('ManalinkEh.dll','c:\magic\ManalinkEh.dll') or die "Copy failed: $!";

#clean up
#`make clean`;

i don`t know much about coding, but i would like to make some cards.
thank you in advance

New cards are coded in C, not ASM. Therefore, you don't need to worry about memory addresses at all. build.pl will put code in the appropriate places and report where it put it.
