ok i have alot of spells that need a visual component. how do i make a fireball shoot from my character towards the target?

The fireball verb is a standard mob/verb which can be used either from the verb pannel(then select the target in a popup) or by right clicking on target and choosing the verb there.

then i want fireball.dmi to shoot from me to target.

how?

May I also recommend the Spuzzum missile library? It's great if you want to test every turf the missile move through if there is an obstacle. It also contains lots of other goodies. You can download it here. (Okay for you, Spuzz?)
