Problem description:
The job of the skill is to push out a obj in all directions causing mob's around him dmg and to move backward or come forward.

The problem is K-K3 all shoot forward and work fine.
but k4-12 dont move.

I was wondering if anyone could show me a better way to make this happen or fix the way its working now. I understand as much as its a problem with my direction's but idk what to place as the directions to fix it.

Garthor

You are walking them all in dir, which is the dir of src. You probably want K.dir instead.

Really, you should just do:

// Loop through each direction
for(var/Dir = NORTH, Dir <= 8, Dir << 1)
  // Create three objects in a 90 degree arc centered in direction Dir
  for(var/v = -45 to 45 step 45)
    var/turf/T = step(loc, turn(Dir, v))
    var/obj/pushblast/P = new(loc)
    walk(P,Dir)

Bigj822	Im kinda new to coding so in there where you put create the obj would it be similar to how i used K-12. but taking out the K:dir?

Garthor	No, those are comments that explain what the loops are doing.

Bigj822	I know that part. what im asking is. In your loop would that be added directly to the code. or would it be like a proc id have to use. Im kinda just learning so your probably going to direct me to the dm guide ,but how would you put it into affect. Would I need to go to how to forum?

Garthor	The comments explain the code that is there. There is nothing else you should add aside from a couple obvious things it's missing. Those obvious things are not labeled in any way. The comments should be left as-is, and totally untouched.
