Oh my God, Can you guys talk like you went to 2nd grade? I'd be glad to help but you seem un-intelligent enough to read big words.

Here, I'll be nice this time and give you to code, but don't run before you can walk, obviously this is simple coding you're trying to do, which proves you need to learn how to code.

/obj/gun/verb
    shoot()
        var/obj/bullet/BB = new /obj/bullet( usr.loc )
        walk_towards(BB,usr.dir)

/obj/bullet/Bump(var/hitted as turf|obj|mob)
    if(istype(hitted,/turf/))
        var/turf/T = hitted
        if(T.density == 1)
            del(src)
        else
            return
    
    if(istype(hitted,/obj/))
        var/obj/T = hitted
        if(T.density == 1)
            del(src)
        else
            return
    
    if(istype(hitted,/mob/))
        var/mob/M = hitted
        var/viewers = view(6)
        M.health -= src.dam
        viewers << "[M] has been hit by the bullet and did [dam] damage!"
        del(src)
        
        

/obj/bullet
    var/dam = 5//damage it does to mob's health
    density = 1
    icon = 'youicon.dmi'
    icon_state = "yourstate"

/mob/
    var
        health = 100


It complies, and It's simple enough that their shouldn't be any bugs
This code also assumes you have an inventory set up, if you don't then sucks to be you, because I ain't wasting my time to make a simple 4 line code.

this is very nice but this code isn't doing what I need it to the code i have is creating the projectile and shooting it until it hits something but it does no damage and doesn't delete itself here is the code

Code:
mob/powers
    verb
        Energyball()
            set category ="Skills"
            set name = "Energyball" 
            var  
                S=new/obj/energyball(src.loc)
            walk(S,src.dir)
            view() << 'Energyball.wav'

Look up the Bump() proc.

Also, World Build, that code doesn't look too hot! Keep working on your DM, and when you know what Boolean logic is, you can help :P

If you look at Weird Builds code and compare it to yours you should see what you're doing wrong. If you don't, you may as well give up on your game and learn more about programming.

When you copy/paste things they tend not to work so keep it up you will have a game in not time! </sarcasm> ...
