What does that mean?

well you can not use locate like that if you want to locate to the location start you will have to search for all turfs in the world and then use the turf start when you find it. But if you just want to locate to a fixed location just put the coridnets in ie loc=locate(10,10,1) that is the location 10,10 on the z axis 1

there is a good tutorial called teliportation found here http://www.riddlersoft.com/ByondPage.htm

You shouldn't be writing tutorials. He CAN use locate() like that. The problem is merely that he hasn't defined a turf/start.

In the exact place? I assume you're reading the DM guide, because that example comes from there, from memory (If you are, GOOD FOR YOU! *thumbs up*).

You just need to have a /turf/start defined if you want to use that. It can go anywhere.
