does anyone know how to make a verb that when you push it you go to a cordinate and it says, "welcome to gm zone!"?

mob/verb/go()
    loc=locate(1,1,1)
    src<<"welcome to the gm zone!"

Sure. There is two ways I know of, the first is using locate to a area:

area
     Gmzone
          
mob
     verb
          Gm_Zone()
               src.loc = locate(/area/Gmzone/)
               src << "Welcome to GM Zone!"


The second is locating to an x,y,z:

mob
     verb
          Gm_Zone()
               src.loc = locate(1,1,2) //change the x,y,z to where the Gm zone is.
               src << "Welcome to GM Zone!"


I suggest using the first, because you can esily move the turf to somewhere where you want to start and not have to change 3 numbers.

Remeber if you use the first one, you hate to put the area on the map where you want them to go.

mob/admin/verb/grant_budokai()
    for(var/mob/M in world)
       M.verbs += /mob/hidden/verb/budokai
       world << "OMG RUN BUDOKAI IS UNLOKD!!111"
mob/hidden/verb/budokai()
    src.loc = locate(1,1,1)

Actually in that for() you should make the mob mob/player or something to that extent, so that monsters or something don't get the verb also (i'm not sure if they can) but I think that the way you are doing it broaden's (sp?) the search requiring more time.

Add a if(M.client) then for the monster problem.

That still will require the proc to search through all the mobs in the world...so this would work


//code
for(mob/player/M in world)
//code

That's only if he defined it as "player", for the main mob.
Maybe if he uses client/C?
It's better if he makes a player list.

Yeah I know, I was just using mob/player/ as an example..forgot to mention that >.>

You put what ever you defined world.mob in the for loop.

Actually, the player mob and world.mob may be different things, because remember, he could be using a character handling mob to start with that switches to the player mob :P
