A global var is like a normal var, except there is only one. If you have mob/var/global/X, X will be the same for all mobs.

I'll give you a simple introduction.

To make a variable that'll goto the entire world (meaning there can only be one of that name, or you'll get variable name errors) do this:
var/Variable=0

That means the variable Variable is set to 0. You can simply change the variable as you would with any other variable, like so:
mob/verb/Change_Variable(N as num)
  Variable=N

Simple, easy, efficient.

ok so how would I go about doing check? Like if Roleplay = 1 I want say to reach only those in view. So would I just do this?:

if(Roleplay == 1)
view(6) <<"Blah"
if(Roleplay == 0)
world <<"Blah"

Explain exactly what you want done, I think I have an idea.. You want a global variable that a RP admin or something can change, and you use a verb and if RP mode is enabled, it displays the text as RP? If not please elaborate and I will try to help.
