That does nothing to my attack. I make it add attd to ur attack which should do something, but it doesn't not even for a second. My attack doesn't bounce at all. When my attack = 1,000 and attup = 1, attd should = 100 and add 100 to 1,000, but nothing happens, it doesn't even effect the person. What's going on? Why won't it work?

Replace all instances of M with src.

Oh, and change <code>if(M.attup >> 0)</code> to <code>if(M.attup > 0)</code> . The >> operator is much different than the > operator. Although they have the same effect right here, you shouldn't be using the wrong operator.

is the "greater than" comparison operator, and has a result of 1 (true) if the lefthand value is greater than the righthand value, and 0 (false) otherwise.

is the bitshift right operator. X >> Y will shift the binary value of X over Y digits to the right. So, 6 >> 1 is 3 (6 is 110 binary, shifted over is 11 binary, becoming 3).

Oh, and effect is a noun (the effect of something), affect is a verb (affected something).
