Sprint Verb

Id like to make a Sprint verb for my game. But every angle that I try to approach just doesn't work out, can someone help me figure out how to get it to work properly?

Code:

mob
    icon = 'Mobs.dmi'
    icon_state = "player"
    step_size = 3
    var
        HP = 100
        MHP = 100
        str = 1
        def = 1
        running = 0
        walking = 1
mob 
    verb
        Run()
            step_size += 2
    proc
        Checkspeed()
            if step_size > 7
                step_size = 5
            else running = 1


It seems that I have an unlimited amount of runs available, but I only want them to only be able to press it once.

Then check if you are already running and <code>return</code> so it doesn't continue.

Ok, Ive adjusted it but now I get a "missing expression" error on the If line.

mob
    icon = 'Mobs.dmi'
    icon_state = "player"
    step_size = 3
    var
        HP = 100
        MHP = 100
        str = 1
        def = 1
        running = 0

mob
    verb
        Run()
            if (usr.running = 0)
                step_size += 2
            else return

Add another <code>=</code> sign after the one in the <code>if()</code> statement.

Alright, Now my final problem. I need to find a way to make running only be used once, But everytime I add coding I get errors, I would appreciate if anyone can help me.

mob
    icon = 'Mobs.dmi'
    icon_state = "player"
    step_size = 3
    var
        HP = 100
        MHP = 100
        str = 1
        def = 1
        running = 0

mob
    verb
        Run()
            if (usr.running == 0) 
                step_size += 3
            else return


How can I make the variable running = 1 at the end of the verb, Also how can I make it where if running = 1, the user cannot click run again and gain speed.

Run()
    if (!running)
        running = 1
        step_size += 3
