Code:
obj
    Fishing_Rod
        name="FishingPole"
        set desc = "A lovely oak fishing pole"      
        icon='items.dmi'
        icon_state="fishingpole"
        value= 10


Problem description:
it gives an error saying,
objects.dm:4:error: desc: bad variable

I don't get it, i know this is a built in thing. Srry if its obvious but im new to coding.

Using <code>set</code> is meant for procs and verbs. Since desc is a built-in varaible, you can take out set to fix the error.
