What you're trying to do has a specific var for the mob called <small>overlays</small>. There's also a var similar to this called <small>underlays</small>. The meaning of these vars should be quite obvious. Anything in the mobs overlays is show on top of the mob, and vice versa.

Here's a specific example on what you're trying to achieve.

obj
    akatsuki_suit
        icon = 'Akatsuki Coat.dmi'
        verb
            wear()
                usr.overlays += src

In response to Jamesy577
Are you using <small>usr.overlays</small> or <small>usr.underlays</small>?

In response to DarkeWarrior

In response to Jamesy577
i change it and it did nothing i might be because i have done the mob icon wrong ?

It's supposed to be <small>usr.overlays</small>. I really don't get why it's showing it under the mob, overlays should make it work.

I'll give you a hint; the layer variable.

In response to Nadrew
so do i have to make coding to layer icons is that what u mean ?
Dec 5 2010, 10:39 am
In response to Jamesy577
Oh thanks, Nadrew.

After you set the suit's icon, add this under that line.

layer = MOB_LAYER + 5
Dec 5 2010, 10:46 am
In response to DarkeWarrior
so does that allow it so u can have up 2 5 layer?
Dec 5 2010, 10:50 am
In response to Jamesy577
No, it just means that the suit's layer is set above the mob's layer. You can have as many overlays as you want.

kk umm i know this will come up in the futrue i will ask it know cause it could be somthing i might have to add to every item um i want my cloth in the game to be a serten layer so that say they put on the akasuki coat and then put on a shirt the akasuki coat would still cover the shirt

Just set the shirt's layer lower than the suit's.

layer = MOB_LAYER + 5 // akatsuki suit's layer

layer = MOB_LAYER + 4 // shirt's layer
