Since runtime errors are caused by code, it's kinda important to include the relevant code. Please post the proc, or at least about 10 lines' worth around line 299, so we can get an idea what's there.

Here is the deathcheck proc
mob/proc
npcdeathcheck(mob/P as mob, mob/M as mob)
if (M.HP <= 0)
P << "You have killed the [M]!"
P.exp += M.expreward
alert(P, "You gain [M.expreward] exp and [M.wealthreward] money,", "Victory!")
P.gold += M.wealthreward
endbattle(P)
del (M)
else
npcattack1(P, M)

Um... so which line is the one with the error?

I'm guessing your error is on one of the lines where there's a += something, in which case whatever you're adding is the wrong type. Aside from that, you might also want to consider replacing the alert() box with a simple << since you're using << for the "you have killed..." message anyway.

It may be having 2 mob definitions.

Also Lummox switching operators isn't going to help.

I was just referring to the stylistic side of this; using the text box for output and then using alert() seems inconsistent. That won't solve your bug, but it'd be nice to do.
