verb/Equip(mob/M)
                if(slot in M.equipped)
                    M << "[src] is unequipped."
                    suffix = ""
                    M.equipped -= slot
                else
                    M.equipped += slot
                    M << "[src] is equipped."
                    suffix = "Equipped"



Well, I want to make sure that they can't equip more then one weapon. If they find that slot in the M.equipped is tells them to unequip the weapon, but I want to make sure I can equip the weapon still. I figure someone can fix it.. I know the line up is wrong...

You're not storing enough information in your equipped list. All you have is information that SOMETHING is equipped there, but you aren't keeping track of WHAT it is. The easiest thing you can do at this point is to use an associative list, like so:

item
  parent_type = /obj
  //get and drop verbs would go here
  equippable
    var/slot
    //handles the effects of equipping and unequipping (stat mods, etc)
    proc/equip(var/mob/M)
    proc/unequip(var/mob/M)
    
    verb/Equip()
      //if they have an available slot for this item
      if(slot in usr.equipped)
        //get the item equipped there
        var/item/equippable/E = usr.equipped[slot]
        //if there's nothing there, then just equip this item
        if(!E)
          usr.equipped[slot] = src
          src.equip(usr)
        //if this item is already equipped
        else if(E == src)
          //unequip this item
          usr.equipped[slot] = null
          src.unequip(usr)
        //if there's some other item already there
        else
          //unequip it
          E.unequip(usr)
          usr.equipped[slot] = src
          src.equip(usr)


For this to work, the players will need to start with a list consisting of the slots that they can equip. So, for example, you'd need:

mob
  var/list/equipped = list("lhand", "rhand", "head", "body")

Ok, you just confused the hell out of me, but I know that is what I want..

Basically, an associative list means you've got one list that has keys and values. You can get the value associated with a key by list[key]. So, for example, to get the value associated with "head", you'd use list["head"]. This is useful, because you can call keys "slots", and values "equipment", and it fits the system you need.

Hmm, I think eventually I'll learn what the hell I'm suppose to learn...
