You have to do del src AFTER repopping because calling delete stops the proc where it is.

Check out istype() in the reference. Here's an example:

turf/special
    Entered(mob/M)
        if(istype(M,/mob/special))
            M << "You're so special!"
        else
            M << "I don't like you leave me alone!"
            del(M)

It had only been three hours between then... as far as I know, people have duties besides posting on the forums all day. ;-P
