How would I make my enemy respawn after death? All I've done so far is a little iconing and Zilal's beginer tutorial. Please help.

Well I was giving you an answer. For example, I assume you have a proc that checks for death. In the proc, after you delete the mob that died just sleep for however long you want and then after that sleep is over, created a new monster.

You can't do this. All of an object's procs stop once it's been deleted. You can, however, just move that dead monster somewhere it can't do anything (so, loc = null), then after some amount of time, move it back to where it was, and reset all its stats using initial() so that it's alive again.

Ok here's a generic example. This is just generic so it probably won't work with your code, so don't expect to just copy and paste.

mob
    verb
        Attack(mob/M in oview(1))
            M.hp -= usr.strength
            M.deathcheck(usr)

mob
    proc
        deathcheck(mob/M)
            if(src.hp <= 0)
                M.exp += 100
                src.loc = null
                sleep(600) //Wait for a minute
                src.hp = src.maxhp //Restore his HP
                src.loc = locate(5,6,1) //And then move him back into play, this can be wherever you want it to be.

That doesn't really make sense to me..... Can you tell me if any guides tell you or something. I don't really understand. Can you tell me something that would work?

Read the DM Guide, because giving you an example is as simple as it gets.
