I'm trying to figure out how to make a command allowing you to message a single person.
If you could help me I'd be grateful

Comunicator(msg as text)
src << "You tap your communicator"

Thats what ive got now... I figure I could use an Input() command, and 'in list' would be all players... Is there a variable for 'all players?'
Meh, maybe this kind of command wouldnt even work

Here is how you would do it:

mob/verb/Tell_One_Person(var/mob/M as mob in world, T as text)
    set category = "Communication"
    M << "[usr] tells you: [html_encode(T)]"

To expand on that, you could also drop an argument and do it like this:
mob/verb/tell(msg as text)
    set src in world
    usr << "You tell [src]: [msg]"
    src << "[usr] tells you: [msg]"

Good point, I totally forgot about that when I did the verb I posted as I was kinda rushing things :S

Should stop trying to rush more that way I might be more accurate hehe.
