Code:
                if("Restore")
                    var/list/L = new
                    for(var/mob/M in world)
                        L += M.name
                    var/namepick = input("Who do you pick?")in L
                    for(var/mob/M in world)
                        if(M.name == namepick)
                            M << "<b>A bright light shines from above as you feel regenerated!"
                            M.powerlevel = M.mpowerlevel
                            M.energy = M.menergy
                            M.strength = M.mstrength
                            M.defence = M.mdefence


Ok this code is used to restore the players. it brings up a list of all mobs in world and you select one to heal, it also brings up the NPC's so i was wondering if some one could please help me make it so only players appear in the list

mob/player/m in world


You should have a sub-type for players and NPC's/other mobs.

                    var/namepick = input("Who do you pick?")in L
                    for(var/mob/M in world)
                        if(M.name == namepick)
                            M << "<b>A bright light shines from above as you feel regenerated!"
                            M.powerlevel = M.mpowerlevel
                            M.energy = M.menergy
                            M.strength = M.mstrength
                            M.defence = M.mdefence


This code change may also help.

Psh, says who? If it were me, I'd check each mob to see if they had a key defined, that way you'd know either if a player is connected to them, or WAS connected to them and might rejoin. There is no /mob/player in Maeva. All creatures share the same properties so basically, you can control anything from a human, to a dragon, to a shrieking purple mushroom (complete with the shrieking!). Of course, if you're making a system where you want efficiency over complexity, /mob/player and /mob/npc are probably the ways to go, as you can make a lot more npcs and still save resources by just making them less complex than players.
