Alright, there are so many errors, I couldn't even bare to read the whole code. Look over the code again. You also used usr in a proc.

--SSJ4_Gohan_Majin

the code has no errors when i compialed, but it doesn't function properly, the usr in the proc works completely fine thank you, and i have icons for everything except i didn't bother to give them to you. You will just have to believe me when i say that i have all of the icons!

The leveling problem comes from DeathCheck(). You're checking and/or leveling up the mob that's about to die. To do this for the attacker you'll first have to be able to access him from the DeathCheck proc(usr will not work) so you'll have to send it as an argument something like this:



This is just an example for you to see how arguments work, now you should be able to avoid putting usr in procs. :)

Thanks for the help but... the LevelUp() in:
if(exp>=expNeeded)
LevelUp()

is referring to the LevelUp proc i have defined elsewhere in the coding. I also have problems with the if (!M.client) del(src) part of your post. M.client isn't defined or so the computer says! You are right on the exp += 3. And thanks on the del proc, because im not killing anthing but the bug quite yet, i didn't think of it! I still haven't solved my problem, however. My 3 problems are (1) The user doesn't gain experience and (2) i dont know how to make the bugs attack the player and finally (3) I dont know how to make the bugs move. Ive tried the wander() proc or whatever it is but it doesn't work. Check my original post for the code because im going to update it now.

i have seen your battle system, but i tested it and the exp didn't go up at all. I took it and immediately compiled it and everything ran except the exp didn't go up in the stat panel, which is my problem!Also, i dont want the bugs to focus on me i want them to wander randomly. As for the attacking, i understand what to do, but i dont know how to put it into my coding.

it almost all worked...
here is my revised code:

//This is a test world started by Tabu34 on 3/15/04 and yet to be completed...
mob
var/level=0
var/exp=0 // experience (total)
var/expNeeded= 15 // experience for the next level
var/maxHP= 20
var/expgained= 3
proc
DeathCheck() //checks to see if an attack is deadly
if (HP <= 0) //if the defender's HP is low enough...
world << "[src] dies!" //do the death messaging
world << "[src] was killed by Tabu34!"
world << "Tabu34 gains [expgained] experience!"
exp+= 3 //adds exp points
if(exp>=expNeeded)
LevelUp()
if(!M.client)
del(src) //delete whatever just died
InjuredCheck()
if (HP <=15)
icon = 'bugcut.dmi'
else
icon = 'bug.dmi'
LevelUp()
++level
src << "Welcome to level [level]."
maxUHP+=4
UHP=maxUHP
expNeeded*= 2
mob
icon = 'person.dmi' //makes it so all mobs will be created with the person icon
name = "player"
var
HP = 30 //declares a new variable called HP, with a value of 30
wealth = 0 //total money
UHP = 40 //new var Hp for user
maxHp = 30 //max hp for bug
maxUHP = 40 //max hp for user
strength = 3//change to the amount you want the player to have
defense = 2//same here
Del()
var/obj/gold/G = new(loc) //create a new obj from the gold blueprint
G.amount = rand(1,100) //set its amount variable randomly
..() //call the parent
Login()
icon_state = gender //when a player logs in, make their icon's state
..() //the gender of their key. Then call the parent!
world << "[usr] had logged into Testworld!"

it gives me these errors:

Testworld.dm:17:error:M.client:undefined var ///line 17
Testworld.dm:63:error:Player:undefined type: Player ///line 63
Testworld.dm:75:error:attack :duplicate definition ///line 75
Testworld.dm:84:error:attack :previous definition ///line 84

please help im sooo close!!!

You're not close, read my first response again.

Who is M? "if(!M.client)"
You're about to delete src which means you'll want to check if src is a client. "if(!src.client)" will work, but so will "if(!client)". That's because src is the default, which brings me to the next point. "if(exp>=expNeeded)" is checking if the src needs to gain a level, but the src is the person about to die. You'll have to send the attacker into DeathCheck() as an argument, I explained how to do this in my first response.

the player is the only one that can level up, so i thought that i wouldn't need to tell who leveled up, But the if(exp>=expneeded) part adds to the variable exp, and the only exp is the player's.Ive decided to to make another death check for the bug's attack so i dont have to change the existing one, but how do i make the player respawn at the beginning of the map? [edit] i also now have another problem. My bugs move, but all they do is go strait down, and they wont attack me!once they stop they are all piled up, and wont move!

Errors? The only errors I see when compiling the code are the icons being missing. Maybe you need to look over the code again, neh?

An error is anything that doesn't function as it should in a program. Compile-time errors are just a small subset of that. In general there are three types of errors:

• Compile-time
• Runtime
• Logic
  
  Logic errors cover a lot of ground.
