What I'm trying to accomplish here is I wish it to, when the user uses the verb, pop up an input for a number. I'd like this number not to be over the amount var for the user(Amount being a variable used to limit inventory space)(As in, the user's current space left([usr.amount] out of 30) must not be exceeded by the input number), it also must equal or be less than the amount of /obj/IronOre in the user's inventory(and of course, must not equal 0). After said input, it should switch to a screen to select an ore type(Only types in the usr's inventory(typesof(/obj/ore)in usr.contents?), which path would be /obj/ore, and then move the inputted number's amount of the selected ore into something(list?), and proceed to loop through a forging code for each ore in the list.

Lamens terms: All I need is to know how to have a num input be applied to an object, i.e. you enter the number 5 and 5 of an object are removed from your inventory and sent to a list.

Either a push in the right direction or an explained fix would be most helpful.

Set a var to the input
var/input = input(blah,blah,blah)


To do the rest, use a while loop. Like
while(var/i=1)
   if(usr.var>10)
     i--
   else
     usr << "Var is too big!"
     usr.var = input(blah, blah, blah)

Either you're misunderstanding me(I'm not trying to have an inventory limit; I already have that.), or I'm not getting what you're saying.
As in:
var/items=list(typesof(var/obj/ore/O)in usr.contents)
for(O in items)
     //Forging code

But that would forge every item in the user's inventory, and I want a set amount.

        Ino += 1
        continue

    while( !bIsValid )
        var/A = input( "Please input a number ( Change this )", "Number" ) as num
        if( !A )
           src << "You must input a number greater than 0!"
           continue;
        if( A >= src.amount )
          src << "The number is too high!"
          continue;
        bIsValid = 1
    var/oType = input( "Which type of ore would you like?" , "Type?" ) as typesof( /obj/ore ) in src.contents
    var/list/Ores = new( Ino )
    for( var/obj/ore in src.contents )
        if( !Ino )
          break;
        else
          Ores.Add( ore )
          src.contents.Remove( ore )
          Ino -= 1
          continue
    for( var/obj/ore/A in Ores )
        //Forging code


Not tested, but it should work.

Sunde.dm:44:error: Bad input type: /obj/Ore
Sunde.dm:44:error: input type (/obj/Ore) must be atomic (area, turf, obj, or mob).
Sunde.dm:44:error: Bad input type: typesof

Got that on the Otype variable.

Alright, so instead of a for(), use a while().

That while() loop makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. The condition is all wrong, and the code inside makes little more sense. You don't seem to really know what you're doing here. It'd probably be best before offering help to others in the future if you have a grasp of the fundamentals.

Lots of bugs with the whole thing(combined with FFF's code)

When it asks what type of ore to forge, it only shows the first one found.
When you input a number over 1 and it starts to forge, if it works then I get a runtime error saying that I is null.type.
If it fails, the second forge and on, the type becomes null somehow as in it will say "You begin to forge .".

Thats some pretty bad code, ill admit. I was using var at the end there as just a general statment, like
usr.somevar = input(whatever)

The idea is to keep checking until somevar is the right size.
Hopefully that makes more sense

Except that's not what you put as the condition in your while() loop.
