I need some code on how to promote people ingame, the demo i found is not helpful.

Please Help

This is what i got -

Female
icon = 'Login.dmi'
icon_state = "f1"
density = 1
layer = OBJ_LAYER + 3
Click()
usr.loc=locate(1,2,2)
usr.name = input("What would you like your name to be?","Name input")
alert("Welcome aboard Recruit [usr.name] to the Battlestar Daedalus")
usr.icon = 'Colonial Mob.dmi'
usr.icon_state="Colonial Relaxation Clothles - Moving Female"
world << "[usr.key]/[usr.name] Has Joined Us as a Colonial Female Recruit!"
usr.invisibility = 0
MakePlayer(src)
usr.Save()

--------------------------------------------------------

mob/proc
MakeCommander(M as mob in world)
M:Rank = "Commander"
verbs += typesof(/mob/Admin/verb)
usr.overlays -= /obj/Colonial/Ranks/Recruit
usr.overlays += /obj/Colonial/Ranks/Commander

MakePlayer(M as mob in world)
M:Rank = "Player"
verbs -= typesof(/mob/Admin/verb)


And i get this error:
Main.dm:1073:error:MakePlayer:undefined proc

You are abusing the colon operator and using usr in a proc, please don't help people if it's only going to screw them up in the long run. Naz, don't use that code. If you want I could write it for you.

mob
  var/rank = "" // this is the default rank, change it as sees fit
  verb
    MakeCommander(mob/M in world)
      M.rank = "Commander"
      M.verbs += typesof(/mob/Admin/verb)
      M.overlays -= /obj/Colonial/Ranks/Recruit
      M.overlays += /obj/Colonial/Ranks/Commander
      M<<"[src] has made you commander"

You copied and pasted didn't you? The code was to learn from.

The fact it works for you doesn't mean it's necessarily correct and will necessarily always work - it's bad practice.

Naz, I'l make it an input for you if you like so you can choose what to call them or choose from a list.
Do you want me to?
