Code:
mob
    verb
        fly()
            set category = "Actions"
            usr << "You hover above the ground"
            if mob.Race = "Saiyan"
            icon = 'loginicons.dmi'
            icon_state = "gokufly"
            if mob.Race = "Namekian"
            icon = 'loginicons.dmi'
            icon_state = "Fly2"
            if mob.Race = "Human"
            icon = 'loginicons.dmi'
            icon_state = "Fly3"
            density = 0  //now we can walk through dense obj's.

doesnt work...... this is my code for defining races though

how would you define it under this?


Code:
mob/Race/Saiyan
    icon= 'loginicons.dmi'
    icon_state = "Goku"
    density=1

mob/Race/Namekian
    icon= 'loginicons.dmi'
    icon_state = "Namekian"
    density=1


mob/Race/Human
    icon= 'loginicons.dmi'
    icon_state = "Human"
    density=1

Thats cause you coded it wrong, its == not =, I thought you would pick that up, I wasn't going to waste my time correcting it.

o thanks im not really good with defining under multiple mobs

How you say it..Seems like its not your code(not saying its not)..In later posts, try to restrain from saying "want"..Sounds like you are asking ppl to do your code..0_0 ..(Just a suggestion)

Also..Indent under your ifs

It's quite simple:
mob
   Race
       verb
           Fly()
       Saiyan
           Fly()
              src.icon_state="gokufly"
       Human
           Fly()
              src.icon_state="Fly3"
       Namek
           Fly()
              src.icon_state="Fly2"
