Ok im trying to get this obj to respawn and it doesnt why?
obj/Gettable/RespawnCreate
    icon='Getables.dmi'
    icon_state="Crate"
    Get(mob/M)
        var/Objloc=loc
        if(M.Sup >= M.MaxSup)
            return
        else
            M.Sup +=30
            M.SupRefresh()
            if(M.Sup >= M.MaxSup)
                M.Sup=M.MaxSup
                M.SupRefresh()
            else
                M.SupRefresh()  
            spawn(50)new/obj/Gettable/RespawnCreate(Objloc)
            del(src)

del(src)

That stops all of src's procedures, including anything you've spawn()ed off.

1) You didnt define "get" as a proc.
2) Shouldn't var/objloc=loc be var/objloc = src.loc or something?
3) You don't even NEED the respawn because the item itself never gets deleted until after the new one is made.
4) Your coding confuses me in general. What does the crate do?

even if i put src.loc it doesnt work

this isnt true cause spawning doesnt halt the proc it will be deleted before the recreate would happen but like Garthor said as soon as del(src) is called it kills the spawn

refills your supplies

You're right. He did, however, define "Get" as a proc.

2) Shouldn't var/objloc=loc be var/objloc = src.loc or something?

Nope.

3) You don't even NEED the respawn because the item itself never gets deleted until after the new one is made.

Nope.

4) Your coding confuses me in general. What does the crate do?

It adds to a variable.

Garthor or anyone else could you send me in the right direction to go about making my obj respawn.Would i need a seperate proc to respawn my obj?

The best solution would be never to actually delete it, and simply move it to null (loc = null), then move it back. Then do if(loc) at the start of the verbs, just in case someone manages to queue up some verbs.
