Ive made this code up but i was wondering if it would be possible if i could use more than 1 attack template eg using spirit bomb or somthing like that how can i do that and also

mob
    Custom
        verb
            custom_attack()
                set hidden = 1 // iconsistent indentation
                var/custom_name =input("What do you want to name this custom?","Custom Attack") as text
                var/custom_say =input("What do you want to say when firing custom","Custom Attack") as text
                if(usr.kame == 1)
                    usr << "<tt>You are currently using [custom_name]"
                if(usr.kame == 0)
                    var/amount = usr.powerlevel/50
                    amount = usr.powerlevel/50

                    if(amount >= 1)
                        if(usr.stamina<=0)
                            usr.kame = 1

                            view(6) << "<font color = red>[usr]:<font color = white> <tt>[custom_say]!!"
                            sleep(30)
                            usr.overlays += /obj/renzuko
                            sleep(1)

DO NOT COPY+PASTE CODE THEN ASK WHY IT'S NOT WORKING.

k

but how can i fix those errors?
Jun 18 2005, 12:27 pm
You need to define M in there somewhere and all those errors will go away. You're assuming BYOND knows M is a mob already, which is doesn't.

So how can i define M then like how can you help me please

If you do not know how to so much as define a variable you really need to go back and look of some tutorials and/or the DM Guide.

The other thing, what people are saying to you is just going in one ear and right out the other...

"DO NOT COPY+PASTE CODE THEN ASK WHY IT'S NOT WORKING."
"k, but how can i fix those errors?"

It's more or less a slap in the face to the person who is giving you advice, albeit in a semi-hostile manner.

It's one thing to take a piece of code from somewhere and edit it to use when you know what your doing. Attempting to use copied code when you don't understand the basics of what the code is actually doing doesn't make your life any easier, it only makes it harder if you were to actually learn how to code and then try to do something with it.

All of the tutorials have sections on defining variables, the DM guide has an entire chapter on variables.

Like N1ght said, all of the questions have been answered, you just need to read the posts. And ironically enough, you did to my post one of the things my post was criticizing you about.

By defining M >.> .
people have been saying it to you several times now, and if you dont know how to define M. stop trying to make a game and read the DM guide or do a tutorital.

You should always start small, dont try to make a big game when your new, lots of people have made that msitake and quit BYOND.
so start making a small game, do more tutoritals, read the dm guide again if nececary.

--------------------
You didnt make any code, if i wasnt lazy i would search the forums for stuff 2 years ago and find that peice of code, you really need how to learn to code, I know you want to make a game really bad but you dont want to learn how to code. It doesent make sence. You really need to read te ZBT's, the blue book and, scan through demos's that's how i learned. You can't start a game with other peoples code, You need to start with the basics and keep working and learning more. Not rip dbz and copy paste stuff that was posted on the forum.

You don't know what your doing wrong because you don't know how to code, *sigh*.
Look through the resources and read through this demo: Your First World
