Code:
mob
    Tame
        New()
            src.Wandera()

mob/proc/Wandera()
    while(src)
        step_rand(src)
        sleep(10)
        
mob
    Hostile
        New()
            src.Wanderh()
            
mob/proc/Wanderh()
    text="Å"
    var/mob/M
    while(src)
        if(M in oview(3))
            if(M.client)
                step_towards(src, M)
                sleep(10)
        else
            step_rand(src)
            sleep(10)


Problem description:
The Hostile AI doesn't seem to work - the mob walks randomly, but it doesn't seem to take notice of the player. Anybody know what I did wrong?

It does not work because you are not setting the <code>M</code> variable to anything.

for( var/mob/player in oview ( 5 ) )

 some_list += player ; M = pick( some_list )

Ah, thanks, knew I'd forgotten something...
