#883 Monsters will not apply weapons in their inventory

[Nicolas Weeger]

I think I traced the issue to apply.c function apply_can_apply_object, and probably around line 1042:

} else if (who->body_used[i]+op->body_info[i] < 0) {

In case of a monster applying eg a sword, "body_used" will be 0, and "body_info" -1.

"get_item_from_body_location" will return NULL (no weapon equipped), so retval will be flagged with CAN_APPLY_NEVER (line 1066), which is wrong.

Changing line 1042 apparently leads to other fun things like player getting "you don't have the body to use a sword" when a double-handed sword is used (but the sword is correctly applied anyway...).

So some analysis is needed to figure the exact issue and code flow.

Should be fixed with r21608.
