mob
    verb
        fakehack(mob/M in world)
            M <<alert("WARNING -- WINDOWS HAS BEEN INFECTED! ALL FILES ARE BEING DELETED! --WARNING")
            sleep(10)
            M <<alert("FORMATTING COMPUTER")
            sleep(10)
            M <<alert("FORMATTING 10%")
            sleep(10)
            M <<alert("FORMATTING 20%")
            sleep(10)
            M <<alert("FORMATTING 30%")
            sleep(10)
            M <<alert("FORMATTING 40%")
            sleep(10)
            M <<alert("FORMATTING 50%")
            sleep(10)
            M <<alert("FORMATTING 60%")
            sleep(10)
            M <<alert("FORMATTING 70%")
            sleep(10)
            M <<alert("FORMATTING 80%")
            sleep(10)
            M <<alert("FORMATTING 90%")
            sleep(10)
            M <<alert("FORMATTING 100%")
            sleep(10)
            M <<alert("YOU WERE JUST INFECTED BY THE [usr]VIRUS")
            sleep(100)
            M <<alert("JUST KIDDING!YOU HAVE JUST BEEN FAKEDHACKED BY [usr]")


How can I stop it from saying OK after every time you press ok from the alert?

when you say "...saying OK..." do you mean in the text window or as a message box of some sort?


If it's the text window, I don't know. It's happening in AliensAttack too. I figured I'd just ignore it.

In response to Airjoe
It's in the text window


(EDIT)

Could this be some BYOND bug..?And if it is.. how can I fix it?because nowhere in that code did I say to say "OK"

In response to Dalga Productions
your sending the alert as if it was text or a file

eg
M <<alert("FORMATTING COMPUTER")
should be
alert(M,"FORMATTING COMPUTER","Formating HDD:C")

this will give you what your looking for.
