What are you trying to do exactly?
|
if (src.loc == M.contents)
im trying to see if the object which is src is located inside a mobs contents | |

if (src.loc == M.contents) Take a look at the in operator. It's good to get familiar with all of your key operators and procs. :) | |
i had tried that before but it didnt work, and since putting it back to in it still does not work for some reason -_-

contents is not a location, it's simply a list of all the objects whose locs are src. So, you just should have if(src.loc == M).

Are you just putting in in your previous code above? Or taking a look at the examples on the reference page?
If it's the former, it will always return false because you're checking if the object's location is inside the contents of the mob, which doesn't make sense because the object's location IS the mob. There are two ways of tackling this: in and ==. You can check if that particular instance of an object is in the contents of an atom, or check if the loc of the object is the atom. | |
