What would i look up on how create partys of 3 or more people. who can team and items work on ll of them.

There isn't really anything you can look up in them. You just need lots of variables (well, not really lots), specifying the team name/leader, etc etc

Though if you wanna do a Follow-leader command, I suggest you look up walk_to().

Code:
walk_to(Ref,Trg,Min=0,Lag=0)

That's not how you learn.
How the heck do you think the first programmers learned everything? No one was there to help them out. And as you might notice, you're on a PC right now, so they succeeded.

As Piratehead was kind enough (you should be grateful, Dbgtsuperfreak), it's all positively explained.

<code>Ref</code> = Reference. Who or what do you wish to move
<code>Trg</code> = Target. Use it on who?
<code>Min</code> = Minimal distance it should stop at.
<code>Lag</code> = Movement delay.

Seriously, though.
When checking out the Reference, don't look at the shiny code-examples. Read what they do.

I don't believe you. It's so simple that if you can learn at all, I think you can learn from reading that. If you need a little more visual cue about what it does, add it into a project. For example, you could write a really simplistic click-to-walk system like this:

turf/Click()
  walk_to(usr,src)


Now, was that so darn hard? The reason you have trouble is that you are not willing to sit down and try anything. And this may shock you, but the forum is not here to provide you with baby sitters who will hold your hand every step of the way through game development. Shape up or you'll always be a clueless turd that can't read an odd dozen words in the DM reference and get an easy-as-pie built in procedure to work, much less anything with any level of complication.

Edit: If you had searched the reference for walk_to(, you would have found the *exact above code snippet* in the Click() part of the reference. Seriously, it pays to look in the reference. Not just a child's glance that says "omgcode, its too hardz!@!", but a few minutes to look at things and try them.

Little bit out off-topic here, but isn't the Clicker always a client?

Jee, doesn't this look-alike.

Well, if you're still going to deny you ripped it like you did with everything, you should easily know how to fix it seeing as you can create a whole party system.
