Try to think of it in terms of code. What are you doing when you ask for strength, powerlevel, or anything else? You store it in a variable. So what would you do with name? The exact same. Look up input()

You would have to use as text in a verb example:


mob/verb/Say(T as text)//Makes a var called T and names it as text
    world<<"[usr]:   [T]"//This outputs what T is to the world.



NOTE DO NOT COPY PASTE THIS CODE IT WILL NOT WORK!

thx nadrew ur always there when i need help and i have another Q what is wrong with this:attack(mob/M as mob in oview(1)) //attack a mob within 1 tile of you
usr << "You attack [M]!" //send this message to the usr
oview() << "[usr] attacks [M]!" //send this message to everybody else
var/damage = rand(1,10) //assign a random # to a new variable
world << "[damage] damage!" //tell the damage to the world
M.HP -= damage //take away the damage from M

here is the errors:D.B.S.F.dm:43:error:M.HP:bad var
D.B.S.F.dm:38:error:punch :undefined proc
