buddylist/adding to user profiles

[nautiqeman]

I have a question as to where I can find exactly where the buddy lists get built. Is it in the functions.php file? Basically what I'm doing it creating another list aside from the buddy list and I want it to perform in the same manner. Meaning that in the forums you can add someone to that list or take them away.

I appreciate any help on this. Thanks.

I'm assuming that the bbuserinfo gets built all as soon as the user logs in, and I see that being built in a file, but there's nothing in there about the buddy list or ignore list. I was wondering where that part of the bbuserinfo array comes in. Thanks again.

the buddy list is built in misc.php.

ok -- but when does the misc.php get called in order to build the list, right at login? -- I don't have the new lists in the usertextfield, they are in another database table -- should I have them added into the usertextfield, or where exactly in the misc.php does the buddylist get built so that my lists are available via anywhere to add people to, just like the buddylist is. That's my main objective.
