Code:
    verb
        Say(msg as text)                   //what the usr says is passed into "msg" as text
            set category = "Comunication"
            set name = "Speak"          // Choose command name
            world() << "[usr]: [msg]"             //the world sees chatroom-like output


Problem description:
I know this looks nooby but i want my say verb to do some more stuff like:
I want it to only apply to players 10 tiles away from the user. I tried to do this but it was an epic failure.Here's my attempt
    verb
        Say(msg as text)                   
            set category = "Comunication"
            set name = "Speak"          /
            world in oview(10) << "[usr]: [msg]"

Help?


Also i want my verb to only be applicable to users. Let me explain. I don't want it so when i click on an object in my game it gives the option speak.Imagine that someone clicks on a gun in their inventory Equip,Unequip,Drop.. O and a..Speak

Any help would be great and I will put you in my game credits. Thanks.

view(10)<<"[usr]: [msg]"


And the reason you're getting all verbs with everything is because you're not defining the verb properly in a parent type.

mob/verb/Say(msg as text)


This way only mobs (players) will have the verb.
