Code:
Bump(atom/M)
                var/damage = rand((owner:power/2.5)-(M:defense+M:speed))/10
                if(isturf(M))
                    owner.firing = 0
                    owner.freeze = 0
                    for(var/obj/O in src.ki_beam)
                        del(O)
                    del(src)
                else if(ismob(M))
                    owner.firing=0
                    owner.freeze=0
                    if(damage<=0)
                        M<<"[owner] missed!"
                        owner<<"You missed!"
                        for(var/obj/O in src.ki_beam)
                            del(O)
                        del(src)
                        return
                    owner<<"You hit [M] with [src] for [damage]!"
                    M<<"[owner] hit you with [src] for [damage]!"
                    M:health-=damage
                    M:health_check()
                    if(M:health<=0)
                        owner<<"You killed [M]"
                        M:death_check()
                    for(var/obj/O in src.ki_beam)
                        del(O)
                    del(src)
                else
                    if(!ismob(M) && !isturf(M) && !isobj(M) && !isarea(M))
                        owner.firing = 0
                        owner.freeze = 0
                        for(var/obj/O in src.ki_beam)
                            del(O)
                        del(src)


Problem description:
The problem is that when beam which is an obj bumps another obj such as a wall or door it sends errors to me talking about how much it hated what I just did.

This is the problem I had when I shot the beam toward my training bag

Yes I am aware this is for a DBZ style game but its totally original and I can prove it.

add
if(ismob(M))
on the first line its trying to use defense no matter what type it bumps into

or just move that line down to the mob section <.<

Okay so I move if(ismob(M)) to the first line but i still wanna have it do something when it hits objs. Hmmm...what if I just moved the var down to below the call?? Thanks I needed another set of eyes.

dont move if ismob
either make a 2nd one up at the top
or move the variable to the one below

In response to Falacy
though if you make a 2nd one up top youll have to define that variable outside it!
so id say just move the var down

In response to Falacy
Thats what i said move the var/damage down

In response to Falacy
Actually by moving the var down right under if(ismob(M)) and testing this is worked without error and thank I would have never thought that it would call the var first but now it makes since.
