Change del(O in src.contents) to just del(O)

tell me if that works.


-Rcet

[edit]
on second thought, you dont need that. Only if you created a new obj in M's contents.

Just delete the del(O in src.contents)... which I don't believe would work anyway. You don't need to delete anything, because you aren't creating a new() obj to replace it with, you are referencing an already existing object, and moving it from one mobs contents to another.

You could even O.Move(M.contents)

howcome when I put M.contents += new O
it gave me an error saying it cannot create (whatever object it was)

just curious, that's what I put first time I tried it.
