I need to make this projectile move to the location i click how would i do that??

obj
    Bullet
        C45B
            icon='Gun.dmi'
            icon_state = "C45B"
            density = 1
            Bump(mob/M)
                if(istype(M,/mob))//if it is a mob
                    var/damage
                    damage = (M.Health - usr.Armor + rand(2,-2))
                    if(damage >= 1)
                        M.Health -= damage
                        M.Death()
                        del(src)
                    else
                        del(src)
                else if(istype(M,/obj))
                    del(src)
                    return
                else if(istype(M,/turf))
                    del(src)
                    return

mob
    proc
        Death()
            if(src.Health <= 0)
                src.Health = src.MaxHealth
                src.loc = locate(1,1,1)

Well I was reading a guide and it had some code with Click()
I'm just saying that it might be useful.

*note*This is just a random noob at coding and forums so I have no idea on what would make it easier to understand.

For a "noob" you are actually right. You would use the Click() proc in conjunction with step_towards() or step_to() to make it go to the place you clicked(look the procs up in the reference.)

i would use walk_towards()

Oh yea, my bad. The walk() procedures would be better for this.

Give this a shot:

obj
    Bullet
        C45B
            icon='Gun.dmi'
            icon_state = "C45B"
            density = 1
            Bump(mob/M)
                if(istype(M,/mob))//if it is a mob
                    var/damage
                    damage = (M.Health - usr.Armor + rand(2,-2))
                    if(damage >= 1)
                        M.Health -= damage
                        M.Death()
                        del(src)
                    else
                        del(src)
                else if(istype(M,/obj))
                    del(src)
                    return
                else if(istype(M,/turf))
                    del(src)
                    return
mob
    Click(var/loc)
        var/obj/Bullet/C45B/B = new/obj/Bullet/C45B(src.loc)
        B.walk_towards(loc)

In response to Mendon
Awh, thats almost correct.
b.walk_towards(loc)

thats wrong, bad arguments. The correct way is 
walk_towards(b,loc)


PS
you don't need Click(var/loc) you can leave it as just Click(loc).Also loc is already a var so i wouldn't recommend using it as an argument. newloc or something along those lines.

Don't use usr in procs. You probably want to be using M.Armor anyway, not usr.Armor.
