mob/player
    verb
        enrage()
            set category = "skills"
            if(usr.frozen == 1)
                usr << "<font color=red size = 1>You are already doing something!"
                return
            switch(input("How much do you want to enrage?","testing") in list("1","2","3","4"))

                if("1")
                    if(usr.blue == 1)
                        Blue_Trans1()
                    if(usr.red == 1)
                        red_Trans1()
// etc etc..

I'm trying to figure out a way to set what a player can choose from in the set list based on what race they are. So for example if the person is a blue race they will see 1,2,3 and if they are a red race they can see 4,5,6 options in the list.

you can alter the list you use for input() prior to the switch statement. e.g.

var/l[]
if( race == "monster" )
    l = list( "Choice1", "Choice2", "Choice3" )

else if( race == "antelope" )
    l = list( "Choice99", "Choice8" )
    
// and then:

input(blablahblah) as anything in l

I am a visual learner and I am having trouble understanding what you are trying to show. If you could please tidy up your code or edit my original with yours, I showed you I would greatly appreciate it thanks.

He means:
mob/player
    verb
        enrage()
            set category = "skills"
            if(usr.frozen == 1)
                usr << "<font color=red size = 1>You are already doing something!"
                return
            var/L = list()
            if(usr.blue == 1)
                  L = list("1","2","3")
            else if(usr.red == 1)
                  L = list("4","5","6")
            switch(input("How much do you want to enrage?","testing") in list(L))

                if("1")
                    if(usr.blue == 1)
                        Blue_Trans1()
                    if(usr.red == 1)
                        Goku_Trans1()

I have this implemented with correct indentation and 0 errors/warnings and my different races are not seeing the different lists when the enrage command is called.

That should work.

Unwanted4Murder using this method the transform command isn't even working anymore. No errors but it isn't working at all when clicked.

I didn't even bother testing something so simple, hence why it didn't work. If you have problems, don't just wait for someone to fix it for you, then just blindly copy and paste... figure it out for yourself.

I found the simple mistakes you made in that original code after the fact I posted.Thanks for your help though.
