I beleive that you must also add an entry to TONGUE_FILE. This is required for all languages in 1.4. There may be more, but start with that.

Also, this could be the problem (not sure, just something to note)

It is reading numbers correct? In my code I'm used to not having the ~ after a number. Its generally a terminating character for fread_string correct?

Teachers are stored in a string, so that it can have more than one teacher. It uses is_name, I beleive to parse the string to see the the teachers vnum is equal to one of the words(numbers) in string.

Good to know. I guess next time I won't post from school where I don't have access to my code to backup what I'm saying. :)
