the object is to create a trade system were you can trade at the same time so there is none of this trade then log off crap. i just need some key information like how to choose the person to trade with and how to send them the stuff.

ps dont worry about only being able to trade with some one close by

This needs to be in Design Philosophy. This forum is for problems in actual code (ie, you show us the code that isn't working like it's supposed to).

Beyond that, you might want to look up oview(), istype(), click(), move() and input() in the help files (F1 in dream maker)

There is no way to stop somebody from logging out. Unless you have a lotof... DUCTAPE! So basically, this isn't possible. You can still hit the "X" when there is a popup.

the point is to send the stuff at the same time instead of u give then they give

well i bet this can be done like they both choose an item and accept and there stored under a variable then after that with nothing in between in the code they both send the thing 1 after another.

i think it would work

make a list variable under mob, and lets them choose stuff to trade, after they are both done, the list is shown each other and if they mutually accept, first usr's list is removed from hes inventory and added to the second and vice versa
