Hello its me kalzimere again and again lol. I took a little break to refresh my mind and just get off my game so wouldn't get to frustrated and drp whole idea. Well now to my question i have been searching for a tutorial or demo anythng that could some how explain to me how to create mob that would walk up and attack. Well i found some things and managed to put them into a small code which is this:

mobloop()
var/mob/M
if(get_dist(src,usr) >= 1)
step_towards(src,usr)
spawn(respawn) mobloop()
else
M.life -= (usr.attackpower)
M.DeathCheck()
spawn(respawn) mobloop()

Thne i wasn't sure what exactly the spawn(respawn) mobloop() purpose was?, so theres one of my questions. I think it is just telling the code to keep calling back up to the top so if runs and runs in a LOOP lol but then again im prob wrong. I think the respawn is a tiem so do i need to have a clock?, i placed 600 which i thought weere seconds under mob.Secondly i created a mob then placed the code like so:

monsters
Evilelf
mobloop()
icon_state="elfM"
name = "Evil-Wood-Elf"
density = 1
life = 100
lifemax = 100
attackpower=2
defense=2
respawn=600

now when i come more then a dist. of 1 the mobn does nothing and when i right next to the mob he still does nothing lol. So if you know what the problem is i be ver grateful in your help. And i also just want to say thanks for all your help in the past you guys do a great job in helping and i hope i can get my game up some day lol. Thansk again.
