How would you make something appear above your icon? Like a rock appearing right above you?

use the layer var (example: layer = MOB_LAYER+10)

This doesn't work.

layer = 'rock.dmi'
layer = MOB_LAYER+10


When I run the game, nothing happens when I click the verb.

    Rocky_V()
      var/obj/O=new /obj/rock
      usr.overlays+=O

thats not how you use layer, layer is a numberical value, the higher it is, the higher the obj will be, so something with layer 12 will be on top of something with layer 10 if there in the same square

The rock doesn't appear above me when I press the verb:

        rock(mob/M in oview())
            var/obj/o = new/obj/rock(locate(MOB_LAYER+99))


Thanks!

You're not that specific.
