Simple, you are using usr.

usr != user, look it up in DM Ref. to see what it actually is. Safe spots for using usr would be in verbs/Click()/DblClick()/Stat().

Use src instead.

I'm wondering if you're using multiple maps for this? Maybe your coordinates aren't leading where you think they're leading if you're using multiple maps.

If you want a more foolproof way to send them to a specific point, you might try when I mentioned in [link], where you send them to tagged locations instead of coordinates.

Also, using ..() isn't necessary here. You should look up Login() in the DM Reference and see what the default action is.
