I'm working on a very simple turn-based system to start me off, but keep getting these errors with this...
mob
proc
Attack(M as mob in view())
var/list/Enemies()=new()
Enemies += M
Enemies -= usr
switch(input("Who to attack?")in list(Enemies,"Cancel"))
if(Enemies)
var/Damage=usr.Strength-src.Defense
src.HP-=Damage
usr << "You did [Damage] damage to [src]!"
Death()
usr.IsMyTurn=0
if("Cancel")
return
____________________________________________________
check.dm:67:error::invalid expression
check.dm:70:error:Enemies:expected a constant expression
____________________________________________________
I'm new to lists as well and I've had problems with them, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Unless this proc is meant to be added to the verbs list and used as a verb, then it needs to be totally rewritten.
As a rule of thumb, if you don't know the difference between src and usr, never put usr in procs. Lummox JR | |
These two Enemies references arent meant to be indented (Tabbed).
The in list part is a little messed here. What you want to do is add "Cancel" too the list, then make the input() in enemies.
By putting in list(blablabla) your creating a new list for the input, so what you were doing there is asking it to select from a list which contains another list and "Cancel".
Here you want to make it so that instead of switch(input()), if(Enemies) then if("Cancel"), you have var/i = input(), then if(i == "Cancel") then else with all the damage stuff in it.
I hope that cleared things up. Its a little hard to explain since I had to swap a few things and add/remove others.
