Code:

    set category = "Actions"
    if(istype(M,/mob/NPCs/))
        return 0
    else
    
        var/damage = round(src.Taijutsu - M.Defense+rand(1,5))
        if(src.doing==0)
            if(damage <= 0)
                src.doing=1
                src<<"You start attacking [M]"
                flick(pick("punch","kick"),usr)
                sleep(5)
                M<<"[src] starts pummeling you"
                sleep(1)
                M << "You easily dodge [src]'s attack."
                M.icon_state="kawarimi"
                sleep(6)
                src<<"[M] easliy dodges your attack."
                M.icon_state=""
                sleep(1)
                src.doing=0

                    sleep(5)
                    M<<"[src] starts pummeling you!"
                    M.hp -= damage
                    view() << "[src] attacks [M] for [damage] damage!"

The DeathCheck() gets a runtime, and i'm not sure why...

In your attack proc, call Deathcheck like this:

<code>src.Deathcheck(M)</code>

Err nope, not really because M is being damaged not src

M.deathproc(src)

Note though, if the M in deathproc is suppose to be the person who was damaged... than you gotta change the way it works (because it would be src not M >.>)

Thanks, it worked.

DeathCheck() is using its argument M wrong. src is the mob dying, not M. M is the killer, which was never actually passed to the proc when it was called. I'd advise changing the call for DeathCheck() to send the killer, even though you don't seem to need that right now.
