Changing turfs

Hello,

I was trying to do a verb like that:
/mob/verb
  // this converts the turf where I am standing
  convert_one()
    new /turf/floor/red(src.loc)
  // this crashes DS
  convert_mass()
    var/turf/floor/T
    for (T as turf in view(1))
      new /turf/floor/red(T:loc)


Anyone has a clue why?

Thanks!

It definitely shouldn't crash...but try taking out the "as turf" part, since that is unnecessary. Dunno if that will stop the crashing though.

its crashing because a turf's Loc is the map. You should change new /turf/floor/red(T:loc)
to new /turf/floor/red(T). That should fix the problem.

Yes, but DS should never crash! Thanks for the report.
