Hey, how would I go about checking a variable to see if it is equal to an object? Would I have to use..
(not caring about indentation)
proc/Random_Object_Spawn
    var/RandX = rand(1,250)
    var/RandY = rand(1,250)
    for(var/obj/Item)
       if(Item == typesof(/obj/Comm_Link)) // Would this Work?
          Item.loc = locate(RandX,RandY,1)
           return

Look up the istype() proc. I think that is what you are looking for.
