mob
    Login()
        icon = 'mob.dmi'
        usr << "Welcome To My Server!"
        usr.loc=locate(1,1,1)


obj/Start
    icon = 'start.dmi'
    Click()
        usr.loc=locate(1,1,2)
        usr.icon = 'mob.dmi'
        world << "[usr] has logged in!"

obj/Quit//the quit obj
    icon = 'quit.dmi'
    icon_state = "q"
    Click()
        del usr

obj/Blackness
    icon = 'black.dmi'

Should just be mob/icon='mob.dmi' or src.icon='mob.dmi' (That's for in Login() ).

Also, please don't use 'usr' in procs except Click/DBlClick and a few others.

I don't think you should start with a login like that. But as for rthe Login error's go to new and make an icon file called mobs or whatever. That should get rid of the error and do the same for every file that the game cannot find. But I do think you should have an easy Login just to work. You can make it like this.

mob
    Login()
        icon='mobs.dmi'
        src.loc = locate(1,1,1)
        world << "<B>[src] has logged in."
    Logout()
        world << "<B>[src] has logged out."
        del src

Bamrulez, you shouldn't start a login like YOURS n'either.
Don't give examples unless you're fairly certain they're bug and abuse free. :|

1. You still have a compile error. o.O
2. usr abuse? zomg!
3. Close html tags.. Really.
4. Parent proc, ever heard of it?

Well I don't know because it work's just fine in my test game.
What's wrong with the code? All it does is make you loggin as what icon it says and logs out. I tested it like 2 times and it work's fine.

'Course it may work, but, though some say the parent proc doesn't do a lot, it's still very important. >.>. It could bug up your whole player.
Also, 'usr' CAN be safe in Login(), I still wouldn't recommend it. Use 'src', really.
And not closing html gets to be a bad habit when coding at higher levels.
