i had my treadmill listed as a mob (i dont know why) and this is the code now
obj
    Treadmill//name of mob
        icon = 'bag.dmi'//location of icon
        icon_state = "Treadmill"//name of icon
        density = 0
        verb//create a verb
            Walk_on_Treadmill()//name of verb
                set name = "Walk on Treadmill"//name of verb
                set category = "Training"//Location of verb
                set src in oview (1)//how close can the person be before the verb is active
                if(usr.Fatigue<=75)
                    usr.icon_state = "run"
                    usr.Exp+= rand(20,400)
                    usr.Max_Fatigue+= rand(5,10)
                    usr.Fatigue++
                    usr << "<font size = -1>Your Endurance Has Increased"
                    sleep(15)
                    usr.icon_state = ""
                    Levelup()

now i get an error on the Levelup() proc saying it is undefined when i have it definded
    proc
        Levelup()//the level up proc,
            if(usr.Exp>=usr.MaxExp)
                usr.Level+=1
                usr.Exp=(usr.Exp-usr.MaxExp)
                usr.MaxExp+= rand(100,1000)
                usr.MaxHealth+= rand(600000000000.0,200000000000000000.0)
                usr.Power+= rand(100000000000000000.0,1000000000000000000.0)
                usr.Defence+= rand(200000000000000000.0,5000000000000000000.0)
                usr.Strength+= rand(400000000000000000.0,1000000000000000000.0)
                usr.MaxEnergy+= rand(100000000000000000.0,1000000000000000000.0)
                usr<<"<font color=blue>You have gained a level"

do you guys see the issue?

Best response
You are calling Levelup() proc without specifying the caller which defaults to the parent of a procedure and in your case, the parent is obj and I assume your Levelup() proc is a mob proc. Replacing Levelup() with usr.Levelup() will fix the problem.

Also, please do not use usr in procs as it is an unsafe programming practice. For more information on this, see the usr var section in the reference.
