                if(src.worn == 1)
                    src:worn = 0
                    usr.overlays -= 'as.dmi'//-= means  subtract (-) the (=) 'shirt.dmi'
                    usr << "You reove the [src.name]."
                else
                    if(src.wg == 1)

no expert coder, but i read somewhere you shouldnt use the : operator in situations like that... or something.

i did just wake up but i see =='s, and if i remember correctly, isnt that booleans? (which i think dont apply here...)

if you mean instead of :
if(src.wg==0) ;
if(src.wg:0)
dream maker gets mad @ u :P

actually, i meant:
if(src:wg==0)

a . woulda done the job instead of : although, == is another error i think...

Is the problem maybe that you never had the "wg" variable change for the first sword thing?
