We can help you if you post a snippet startiung a few lines before to a few lines after the line in which the error occurs... we all here are not psychic to know your code :/

And the exact warning/error message can also help.

ok well heres the EXACT enviromenr code every single piece:

// DM Environment file for ninja ville.dme.
// All manual changes should be made outside the BEGIN_ and END_ blocks.
// New source code should be placed in .dm files: choose File/New --> Code File.

// BEGIN_INTERNALS
// END_INTERNALS
// BEGIN_FILE_DIR
#define FILE_DIR .
// END_FILE_DIR

// BEGIN_PREFERENCES
// END_PREFERENCES

// BEGIN_INCLUDE
#include "combat.dm"
#include "mudDemo.dm"
#include "ninja ville.dm"
// END_INCLUDE

the exact error is:

ninja ville.dme:16:error: missing expression

... I never asked you for the environmental code, I asked you for the code starting a few lines before to a few lines after where the error is located.

Is there a / in any of your DM files? Like, one that DOESNT belong where it is.

If so, delete that / part.

Er sorry, didn't notice the e in the error you posted. Usually these .dme error lines offcur if an error happened in a DMC in the very last line (usually to me anyways). Try seeing if eberything is okay in it (such as there's a if(x==y) and not a if(x=y)).

Mud/WelcomePlayer()

usr <<

This would be your culprit; You need to finish that statement, so to speak.

Such as:
usr << "Hi there!"


Or eliminate it altogether.

Errors might not always originate where the compiler tells you; Sometimes its not possible to figure that out, so you have to know where to look - Generally speaking, any error in the DME file means that you have 'bleeding' code somewhere like the above; Or, another example might be an unclosed multi-line comment such as:
mob/verb/Test()
   src << "Yeah!"
   /* This is just a test verb


At the bottom of a .dm file.
