mouse_pointer_icon is a client var, not a mob var.

so how would i change it?
client.mouse_pointer_icon = 'mouse.dmi'

this?
usr.client.mouse_pointer_icon = 'mouse.dmi'

this?

This will set it:
<code> client mouse_pointer_icon = 'mouse.dmi' </code>
If you want to change it during the game, as long as you say mob.client.mouse_pointer_icon it should work, provided the mob has a client connected to it. If there is no client connected to the mob you'd probably get a runtime error saying that it can't modify a null client, or something like that.

Then you are probably trying to set the mob/mouse_pointer_var, not the client's var. Try usr.client.mouse_pointer_var = 'mouse.dmi' instead of what you have. Posting the line with the error would help.

Like it's been said before:
<code> client mouse_pointer_icon = 'mouse.dmi' </code>
Also, don't forget to set the hotspot for where you want the mouse to click (it defaults to the middle).
