The topic says it all, i want to know how to get verbs to be shown in a right click menu, depending on what you are right clicking on, thanks in advance XD

That is the default behavior.

Hmm, i wondered ablout weither it was, and when i complied, and ran the game, for testing, right clicking did not work for anything, even if i was on the tile, or off the tile, that i was right clicking, is there a certain way you have to set up the verbs, to trigger the default, or is there a way that you could accidentally null it, without meaning to, and if you need it, i can post snippets of code, (i will post a small example of how they are being written though, right now)

turf
  dirt
    verb
      dig()
        new/obj/item/dirt(usr)
        usr << "You dig up a dirt"

obj/item/dirt

Oh, right. For areas and turfs, the default src setting is "set src = view(0)". The = suppresses a dialog window to select the target and suppresses the right-click verb list (again, because you can't select the target). Put "set src in view(0)" at the start of the verb to get the drop-down.

Don't forget that verbs that take other atoms as args will also appear on the right click menu.

E.g.
mob/verb/Zap(mob/M as mob in view(usr))
    M<<"[usr] zaps you!"
    usr<<"You zap [M]!"


Will cause right clicking on a mob to display the Zap verb in the list of possible verbs.
