Code:

    var/Infected = 0

                    walk_rand(src,0,2)
                    world << "DEBUG:"
                    //sleep(100)
                //  src.Airborne()
                else
                    ..()
                    spawn(50)
                    src.Airborne()
        Move()
            var/obj/Infected/I = new
            I.Virus = "Airborne"
            var/turf/InfectedPlace = src.loc
            InfectedPlace.Infected = 1
            I.loc = src.loc
            ..()
        Click()
            world << Type

obj
    Infected
        icon = 'Infected.dmi'

    turf = /turf/Grass
    maxx = 10
    maxy = 10
    maxz = 1
mob
    verb
        Sneeze()
            var/RandV = pick("Cold","Flu")
            var/obj/Infected/I = new
            I.Virus = RandV
            var/turf/InfectedPlace = src.loc
            InfectedPlace.Infected = 1
            I.loc = src.loc
            if(RandV == "Cold")
                I.Type = "Contact"
            if(RandV == "Flu")
                I.Type = "Airborne"

Problem description:
(Focusing on airborne more than contact)
Problems Are:

1.When i click on some of them they show nothing its completely blank. When it's suppose to show the virus type

2.The airborne virus is stacking up. How do i stop that, it bothers your eyes when it stacks up to much and i dont want it to be that viewable.

3.How do i make the virus stop going to a place where the virus is in already?

4.The virus also stops moving around after a point.

Solomn Architect	Okay, so just clarify again what it should be doing versus what it's actually doing. It may just be the way I'm reading it, but the description of the behaviour you want is extremely vague to me.

Zecronious

I believe this should solve 3/4 questions you had. You just have to replace the airborne process you've got with this one.

The only question I can't answer is why Click() isn't working. It depends on the icon you're using. It's quite possible the icon you have has got holes in it and you think you're clicking the icon but you're really clicking what's underneath it.

I'm not entirely sure about that question.

    Airborne()
        var/direction
        while(src)
            direction = pick(NORTH,SOUTH,EAST,WEST)
            var/turf/thatDirection = get_step(src,direction)
            var/clearDirection = !thatDirection.density
            
            for(var/atom/someAtom in thatDirection)
                if(someAtom.density == 1)
                    if(!(istype(someAtom,/mob)))
                        clearDirection = 0
            
            if(!(locate(type) in thatDirection) && clearDirection)
                step(src,direction)
            
            sleep(10)

Zecronious	Just to be noted I updated this code^ Whatever is there now should be correct.

I'm not getting that error unfortunately but this might fix it.

    Airborne()
        var/direction
        while(src)
            direction = pick(NORTH,SOUTH,EAST,WEST)
            var/turf/thatDirection = get_step(src,direction)
            var/clearDirection = 1

            if(thatDirection)
                clearDirection = !thatDirection.density

                for(var/atom/someAtom in thatDirection)
                    if(someAtom.density == 1)
                        if(!(istype(someAtom,/mob)))
                            clearDirection = 0

            if(!(locate(type) in thatDirection) && clearDirection)
                step(src,direction)

            sleep(10)

Sep 2 2014, 4:56 am
Zecronious	Apart from that error does it do what you wanted?

Sep 2 2014, 7:19 am In response to R0nny
GhostAnime	Could be that you are facing off-screen. You should check if that /turf exists via`if(thatDirection)` JUST before var/clearDirection

I don't know whats happening did i do something wrong?

Sep 2 2014, 2:34 pm
FKI	Off top, you want to change this New() ..() src.Airborne() proc Airborne() var/direction to: New() ..() src.Airborne() proc Airborne() set waitfor = 0 // line added. var/direction Why? You want to allow `New()` to finish. Those errors may go away after fixing that.

Sep 2 2014, 5:13 pm In response to FKI
Albro1	Correct me if I'm wrong, but calling `..()` executes the default behavior at that moment, as if you were calling a proc, right? Meaning `waitfor` wont change anything, since `Airborne()` wont be called until the default behavior finishes.

Sep 2 2014, 5:21 pm
R0nny	Uhh, i never knew it was so hard to do this. I thought it was a easy creation T.T.

You are right, but that doesn't change the fact that it wasn't finishing.

Meaning waitfor wont change anything, since Airborne() wont be called until the default behavior finishes.

I'm pretty sure it changes a lot considering the context of the code presented (given what I said above).

I tried starting all over using your codes as refs. But it makes a infinite loop.

        proc
            Airborne(var/obj/Infected/I)
                while(src)
                    directions
                    var/direction = pick(NORTH,SOUTH,EAST,WEST)
                    var/Getz = get_step(src,direction)
                    if(I in Getz)
                        world << "DEBGUGED2"
                        goto directions
                    else

You just need to think a little critically about what you're doing I think.

I took out some stuff you added that wasn't needed. Maybe it'll help.

Honestly without having access to your game it's not easy.

        var/Virus = list()
        var/Type

                    direction = pick(NORTH,SOUTH,EAST,WEST)
                    var/turf/thatDirection = get_step(src,direction)
                    var/clearDirection = 1

                    if(thatDirection)
                        clearDirection = !thatDirection.density

                        for(var/atom/someAtom in thatDirection)
