This question makes absolutely no sense. Read it through, ask yourself, "Would someone who doesn't already know exactly what I'm talking about (that is, someone besides me) know what it is I'm asking?)" Then ask it again.

Ok,

when i do
obj
verb
verb(n as num)

the player has to type verb obj num instead of just verb num.
my problem is i cant have the verb a mob verb and i have to have it an object verb. but i dont want to have players have to type the name of the object when they use it.

So make the verb belong to the player, and have it check for the presence of an obj when it's used.

Or 'set src = view()' rather than 'set src in view()'.
