That would be your LoadMob or SaveMob code.. We can't really help you without that information.

Try:
client
    proc
        SaveMob()
            var/savefile/F = new("players.sav")
            var/char_ckey = ckey(mob.name)
            F["[ckey]/[char_ckey]"] << mob

        LoadMob(char_ckey)
            var/savefile/F = new("players.sav")
            F["[ckey]/[char_ckey]"] >> mob

mob
    verb
        Save()
            client.SaveMob()
            sleep(30)
            src << "Your character has been saved!"

mob
    verb
        Load()
            client.LoadMob()
            src << "Your character has been loaded!"

A problem I immediately noticed was that you defined two different saves, players.save and players.sav. You cannot load a savefile from another savefile that doesn't exist.

This is a vital problem to be avoided. Always check to be sure that the saves files match.

I run the game and press load, and the charcter still freezes. Do I have to make it load before the player logs in? I'm tryin to make this work with a title screen.
