mob
    Snitch //create the snitch and set a few properties
        icon = 'Quiddetch.dmi'
        icon_state="snitch"
        density=1
        New() //when SNitch is created
            ..()
            spawn()
                src.Wander() //Do Wander()
        var/caught //has a var for the Wander() proc
        proc
            Wander()
                while(!src.caught) //while the Snitch isn't caught, caught is null
                    step_rand(src) //move randomly
                    sleep(10) //wait a second
                spawn(5)
                    src.Wander()
 
mob
    You
        //stuff about You
        verb
            Catch_Snitch(var/mob/Snitch/S in oview(1)) //You can catch a snitch within one tile
                if(istype(S)) //check if S is a snitch
                    S.loc = usr //move the snitch to your inventory
                    S.caught = 1 //Snitches 'caught' variable is non-null,Wander() does nothing

Or do this:
mob/Snitch
        verb
            Catch_Snitch()
                set src in oview(1)
                src.loc = usr
                src.caught = 1

That way it doesn't show up all the time in the user's commands and it does the same thing.

UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM huh are you using a character save/load library, that looks familiar.

In response to SJRDOZER
It means your savefile was saved with those verbs, but since they no longer exist, it's creating a problem.

Delete your savefile and try again.

I made similar procs like those codes using my mob and some other mob with an attack verb and they worked just fine.

        player
            icon = 'player.dmi'
            hp = 10
            verb
                Attack()
                    set src in oview(1)
                    src.hp -= 1
                    usr << "You attacked [src.name] and it now has [src.hp] hp left."

The verb is placed under the mob, in this case player. Then in the verb at the top you put in set src in (list of things that can access the verb). In this case it's oview(1) so anyone 1 tile away from the player can use Attack.
src.Attack() is called where src is the player mob, not the person who activated the verb. usr is a user.
I am a different mob who doesn't normally have Attack()
