proc
Basic_Kick_Combo1() //name of the proc =/
icon_state = "Basic_Kick_Combo_1" //change icon state
attack(mob/M as mob in oview(1))//attack mob in outside view
var/damage = rand(75,100)//do and amount of damage between 75 and 100
M.Stamina -= damage//take away the amount of damage done from the mobs stamina
world << "[src] was hit for [damage] damage!"//display to the world the mob was hit
spawn(15)//sleep for 15 tics
src.DeathCheck()//DeathCheck proc
if(src.var/Stamina <= 0)//if the mobbeing hits stamina is already 0
M.HP -= damage//take damage away from the hit points
DeathCheck()//DeathCheck proc



i dont see anything wrong with it, and every time i try to compile it says by putting in var/damage = rand(75,100) im putting a proc definition in another proc, and no matter what i do try try and fix it that error keeps coming up. Help please?

I THINK you're supposed to use flick('icon.dmi',usr) instead of changed the users icon but I'm not sure and I don't think it'd solve you're problem either so I dunno.

Edit:
I dont think you need the var/ before damage

No, it won't fix your proc, but it will save you a whole lot of headaches in the future if you keep it in mind.

Looking at your proc all I see is a big jumbled mess of confusion and I don't even understand what its supposed to do, let alone show you how to fix it.

Look where you defined attack(), it's in the Basic..() proc.

And follow Foomer's advice to avoid using usr. usr != user, look up what it actually means.

Well if you're going to be rude I'm definitely not going to help you, although I surely could if you'd actually explained what you were trying to accomplish instead of telling me to "gtfo".

sorry i got mad, ive just been stuck for a while and am starting to get a headache

proc
Basic_Kick_Combo1() //name of the proc
icon_state = "Basic_Kick_Combo_1"
attack(M/mob in oview(1))
var/damage = rand(75,100)
M.Stamina -= damage
world << "[src] was hit for [damage] damage!"
spawn(15)
src.DeathCheck()
if(src.var/Stamina <= 0)
M.HP -= damage
DeathCheck()

its pretty simple, which part of it don't you understand

    Basic_Kick_Combo1() //name of the proc
        icon_state = "Basic_Kick_Combo_1"
            attack(M/mob in oview(1))

It looks like you're starting two separate procs here, or a proc and a verb. Basic_Kick_Combo1() is one proc, while attack() is another. What are you trying to do?

                    src.DeathCheck()
                        if(src.var/Stamina <= 0)
                            M.HP -= damage
                            DeathCheck()

I don't understand what's going on here. Why are you calling DeathCheck once, and then calling it again if Stamina <= 0?

im trying to make one proc that does damage to a mob



and the part you asked below is im saying that if the stamina is equal to or below 0 already, the damage comes out of the hitpoints, and when the players hitpoints reach 0 (which i already coded in (the part about dieing once the hp reaches 0 that is))

So basically what you want is this?

proc
  Basic_Kick_Combo1(mob/M as mob in oview(src, 1))
    flick("Basic_Kick_Combo_1", src)

    var/damage = rand(75,100)
    M.Stamina -= damage
    src << "You hit [M] for [damage] damage!"
    M << "[src] hit you for [damage] damage!"

    spawn(15)
      if(M.Stamina <= 0)
        M.HP -= damage
        M.DeathCheck()

basic_kick_combo_1 isnt an icon, its an icon state

I can't do anything for you unless you provide information to work with. You say "help me I got errors!" Woohoo, like anyone can help you there. Maybe if you actually explained what they were, for example, people could help. "but its an icon state not an icon!" That's nice. What are you getting at? Try explaining yourself a little bit. We can't read your mind or your monitor.
