(See the best response by Kaiochao.)
Code:
Sleep()
            set category="Commands"
            src<<"<font color=olive><b>You drift to sleep."
            src.icon_state="sleeping"
            src.Health=100
            src.Hunger-=50
            src.Thirst-=50
            step_size=0
            sleep(2000)
            src.icon_state="base"
            step_size=2


Problem description:

I figured using the step_size code here would work, but it doesn't. Basically, I'm looking for a way to code nullified movement when a player sleeps.

Sleeping restores them to full health but lowers their hunger, and thirst attributes. I just can't figure out how to nullify their movements while sleeping.

Setting step_size to 0 actually sets it to the world's tile width, according to world.icon_size.

It's not ideal, but it comes from how pixel movement was added on top of tile movement.

If you want to block movement, you need to override one of client.Move() or mob.Move().

Alright, makes sense. Thanks.

Best way I can think of would be to add a variable to the mob that indicates if it's asleep, then, have your verb toggle it, and override the client's predefined move procs to all check if the client's associated mob has asleep set to 1
