        del(src)


Problem description:
Im getting : bad arguement definition on the line: usr.client.view=7, but its not about usr.client.view=7, becuz deleting it gives me the same problem except it points at the same line.

i found this login and logout ( save and load) code on the forum, because of a problem i was having with my original one. whats the problem here???

Code:
    proc/Login()
        var/firstletter=copytext(src.ckey, 1, 2)
        if(fexists("players/[firstletter]/[src.ckey].sav"))
            var/savefile/F=new("players/[firstletter]/[src.ckey].sav")
            Read(F)
            Move(locate(F["last_x"],F["last_y"],F["last_z"]))
            usr.client.view = 7
            world << "<b>[usr] has logged in!"
        else
            alert("No character found")
            alert("What's your name?")
            usr.name=input("Choose a name for your character.","Your Name",usr.name)
            usr.icon_state = gender
            usr.loc=locate(6,11,1)
            world << "<b>[usr] has logged in!"
            usr.client.view=7


Problem description: im getting inconsistent indentation on the var/firstletter, and bad arguement definition on the first usr.client.view=7... i got this log in (load) and a save(logout) because my original did not work. only the load has the problem... why is the var/firstletter have a wrong indentation????? im not sure what the usr.client.view is, but when i try to delete that line, the error sttays in the same line, even tho its gone... im sorry that i cudnt create a different version of ma original log in and out code. but this one was a solution to my previous problem,

plz help me

In response to Iraqii
world << "[usr] has logged in!" <--unindent that line once.

Then, after you do that, replace usr with src. Using usr in a process is not a good idea.

The problem right there is indentation, on the first line after Login(). And also just plain using a bad saving system: Read() and Write() should not be called directly, and any processing that needs to be done on save/load should be done by overriding those procs.
