Alright heres my problem:

DeathCheck()
if (HP <= 0)
world << "[src] dies!"
del(src)

It's supposed to get rid of the corpse when a monster dies but it dosen't O.o, there arent any errors or anything when i compile it, so what could be going wrong?

Thanks in advance =o)

P.S. It was working last night.

Try this...

DeathCheck(mob/M)
if (M.HP <= 0)
world << "[M] dies!"
del(M)

Do you get the message that "[src] dies!"? If not, I'd say the DeathCheck isn't getting called. Look at the part of your code where the thing is taking damage or whatever... make sure you have a call to DeathCheck() afterwards.

For example:

mob/proc/damage(dmg)
src.HP -= dmg
src.DeathCheck() <---- this is calling DeathCheck()


If you have the call in there, make sure you don't return before it, or have it indented on a different level.
