Problem description:
Improved battle system.dm:45:error:<< :bad variable
i've asked a myriad of people for help but so far no one could find out what is wrong with it, it says the << in
usr << M.overlays+=targetoverlay //allow usr to see it
is a bad variable but i dont see how, im trying to add it so that when you target something it will add a overlay to that mob but only the usr can see it.

Additionally: make targetoverlay a mob variable, so that later you can remove it when you select a new target.
