How could i make it so when you click on a player you follow them and keep attacking them until they perish(Die)? Here is what i have so far. I have the following part down but i don't know how to make them keep attacking(looping) until the player perishes. If anyone could guide me that'd be great!

client
    Click(mob/M)
        if(istype(M)&&M.client)
            if(M in oview(5))
                if(usr.enemy==null)
                    call(usr,/mob/proc/Target)(M)
        ..()

mob
    proc
        Target(mob/M)
            if(M.attackable)
                src.Attack(M)


                
        Attack(mob/M)
            step_to(src,enemy)
            M.damage--

You'll want to call Attack(M) again at the end of this, but not before checking if M is dead. I just used a made up variable called dead. You may be tracking death some other way, so alter that if() statement to fit with your own code.

Okay and say i wanted them to stop attacking after a certain ammount of hits. Would i create a var and keep adding to the variable and when it hits a certain ammount use break to stop the operation?

That would work.
