Here is a bit of my code from the game I am making:

mob
    Warrior
        verb
            Slash(mob/M as mob in view(1))
                if(Skill >= 10)
                    var/SlashDamage = src.Power + src.Skill - M.Aura
                    src << "<b>You do [SlashDamage] damage to [M]!"
                    M.Life -= SlashDamage
                else
                    src << "<b>You havn't the skill to use this attack!"


The problem is, I only want Slash to take effect IF there is another M out there OTHER then the user himself, because when I test, It makes me slash myself, I have many cuts and I have lost much blood from this :/ Please help.

try Slash(mob/M as mob in oview(1))

in the reference, it says this for Oview:

A list of visible objects within Dist tiles of Center, excluding Center.

Maybe it'll help
