Instead of making it effect people in get_step. How can i make it so it damages everyone around the user?

Use a for() loop using oview(1) so it effects everyone in 1 tile. Look up both of htem before starting.

for(var/mob/M in oview(1)) thats how you define it.

You'd want to use range() for something like this, instead of view().

Use teh orange() proc the best!

Depending, of course. The principle difference is minimal, of course, and my main intention was pointing out the correct proc functionality to use, ie what proc series. But I agree, using a proc named after a fruit is always good.

Mkay. Thanks kaioken. I had to change a few things that were conflicting with this Code also. >_<
