i thought i had the code fixed but i get this when i test it:
runtime error: Cannot read null.health
proc name: Death (/mob/proc/Death)

and this is my death code:
mob
proc
Death(mob/M)
if(M.health<= 0)
world << "[M] was slain by [usr]."
del(M)

if you see anything wrong please let me know.

Im going to get to this before someone else does.
Never use usr in a proc. Learn it early on before it becomes a habit.

Yea, but still, how would you know?

For all you know, there are more female developers openly showing their work, although you may not know about it because they don't advertise on these forums, if not at all.

:P
