This code turns up an error:
mob/proc/City()
if(usr.City = 7)
world << "WINNER: [usr]!"
usr << "YOU WIN!"

Line 2 is flagged with the error: error: missing expression. How do you fix that?

When checking a var, you use '==' not '='.

Well, that was fixed, but now the City code ITSELF is messed up.
turf
City
icon = 'city.dmi'
density = 1
verb
City_claim()
usr.City += 1
usr << "[usr], you conquered a city!"
usr.Population += 100
M:City()

The last line, the one that executes the proc, is messed up.

Small surprise, since there's no M defined anywhere in that verb. Unless there's a turf/var/M somewhere, it's not going to work.
You should, however, at all costs avoid the : operator here.

ACK! Now it's an in-game bug.
The verb "City_Claim" won't refused to become a verb when the person is within one space of the city.
turf
City
icon = 'city.dmi'
density = 1
mob/verb/City_claim()
usr.City += 1
usr << "[usr], you conquered a city!"
usr.Population += 100
usr.City()
Road
icon = 'road.dmi'

I don't know what you are trying to do.. But this is NOT the way to do that.. This is TOTALLY messed up, unless this is some new way to do turf verbs, which I don't think it is..

You would have to take away the "mob/", and under your City_claim verb, put set src in oview(1).
