So, I have a list of physical attacks for the combat system, but I want to add more attacks, under special conditions like you use a "special" skill and it adds it to the list. And then checks to see if the skill is in the list.

well you should probably use if
like if they have to have unher 10 hp left to use then it would be like this
mob
 verb
   super_attack(mob/M as mob in oview(1))
    set category = "name of list u put it in" //or what ever
    if(usr.hp<10)
     if (M.HP <= 0)
      usr<<"[M] already dead!!"
     else
      usr << "You attack [M] for [damage] damage!"
      oview() << "[usr] attacks [M]!"
      var/damage = rand(15,100)
      world << "[damage] damage!"
      M.HP -= damage
//then you could add some exp aditions here, proc callings or what ever



then you can also add other conditions


mob
 verb
   super_attack(mob/M as mob in oview(1))
    set category = "name of list u put it in" //or what ever
    if(usr.hp<10)
     if (M.HP <= 0)
      usr<<"[M] already dead!!"
    if(usr.energy<124)
      usr<<"your about to die"
    if(usr.whateverelseconditionyouhave<20)
     else
      usr << "You attack [M] for [damage] damage!"
      oview() << "[usr] attacks [M]!"
      var/damage = rand(15,100)
      world << "[damage] damage!"
      M.HP -= damage


just depends on how many conditions you want (you do have to
have the vars in the game or dream maker gets mad @ u :P

No more like, you use a skill called "power-up" and it gives you the skill "super attack" by adding it to the list of your skills, but if it doesn't fit the right conditions then it is never added to the list.

ok then try this
mob
 var
  inpower = 0
mob
 verb
  PowerUp()
   if(usr.inpower==1)
    usr.overlays -= 'energys.dmi'
    //str -= 20     goes here, but id have to add code to ur  game here for that to work
    usr.inpower = 0
   else
    usr.overlays += 'energys.dmi'//you get overlays
    usr.health -= 10
    //str += 20   goes here, but id have to add code to ur game for it to work
    usr.inpower = 1
    usr<<"you use your powers"
    DeathCheck()//just to check if he died from using the power up
mob
 verb 
  super_attack(mob/M as mob in oview(1))
   set category = "Fighting" //or what ever
   if(usr.inpower==1)
    if (M.HP <= 0)
     usr<<"[M] already dead!!"
    else
     usr << "You attack [M] for [damage] damage!"
     oview() << "[usr] attacks [M]!"
     var/damage = rand(150,200)
     world << "[damage] damage!"
     M.HP -= damage
     M.DeathCheck()
//then you could add some exp aditions here, proc callings or what ever

Just to say the least - make sure you don't use new() on verbs.
Though that code shouldn't be used anyway and be only an example (and quite a bad one unfortunately).
