For team games (red vs. blue) How would i make a var or something to represent your team. For instance:
choose your team: Red / Blue
(picks red)
how would you be on red team then?
EDIT: how to save would be helpful too plz

var/team


If they pick red,

team="Red"

mob/var/Team //variable for you to define your team 
switch(alert("What team do you want to be in?","Choosing Team","Blue","Red")) // put this in a proc or verb
    if("Red") usr.Team = "Red" //making their team red
    if("Blue") usr.Team = "Blue" //making their team blue
mob/verb/Check() //a mob verb to check which team you are
    switch(alert("So, you'd like to check what team you're in, huh?","Checking Team","Yes","No")) //question thingy
        if("Yes") usr<<"You're in Team \"[usr.Team]\"." // yes cause
        if("No") usr<<"Okay..." // no cause


I hope it's something worth to you. =)

I would personally make a Team datum for a case like this:
#define RED  1
#define BLUE 2

mob/var/Team/team//a way to reference what team they're on
   
Team
    var
        color
        list/members//members of the team, note that it doesn't contain the leader of the team
        mob/leader//You may delete this var if 
    New(color,mob/leader,members[])
        src.color=color
        src.leader=(ismob(leader))? leader : null
        leader.team=src
        if(members && members.len)//If more than color is passed as an arg
            for(var/mob/player in members)
               src.members+=player//add to list
               player.team=src//reference the team

proc/createTeam(color,mob/leader,members[])
    if(istype(leader))//if the leader is a mob
        new/Team(color,leader,members)//create Team
//the following is an example of how to view the members.
mob/proc/Team_Members()
    for(var/o in team.members)
        src<<o
