//////////////////////CODE\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
Win(mob/NPC/Monster/Rat/M)
     usr.Experience += M.exp
     alert("Congratulations: You gain [usr.Experience] Experience and 5 Silver Coins!"

///////////////////RUNTIME ERROR\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
runtime error: Cannot read null.exp
proc name: Win (/turf/Battleverbs/Attack/proc/Win)
source file: Attack.dm,57
usr: GM Little Sally (/mob/PC)
src: Click To Attack Monster (16,146,1) (/turf/Battleverbs/Attack)
call stack:
Click To Attack Monster (16,146,1) (/turf/Battleverbs/Attack): Win(null)
Click To Attack Monster (16,146,1) (/turf/Battleverbs/Attack): PCAttack()

you need to look for M by doing in oview() something or other I think... try it.

That means the /mob/NPC/rat's exp var is null or it has no exp var.

But it does



Code
Monster
     var
          monster= 1
     Rat
     icon ='Rat.dmi'
     name ="Rat"
         var
            HPnpc = 6
            Strengthnpc = 1
            Defencenpc = 0
            exp = 5

alright try this...
Win(mob/M)
     if(istype(M,/mob/NPC/Monster/Rat))
          usr.exp += M.exp

I dont know if it will work but it looks to me that the game cant find a Rat to get the exp from so it needs the For() to find it... I think. Try it and see for yourself.

Ok here is more code.


proc
                PCAttack()
                    sleep(1)
                    usr.loc = locate(8,145,1)
                    sleep(1)
                    usr.loc = locate(7,145,1)
                    sleep(8)
                    usr.loc = locate(8,145,1)
                    sleep(1)
                    usr.loc = locate(9,145,1)
                    for(var/mob/NPC/Monster/Rat/M in locate(5,145,1))
                        M.HPnpc -= rand(1,3)
                        usr <<"You attacked!"
                        if(M.HPnpc <= 0)
                            Win()

                            del M


                NPCAttack()

                Win(mob/NPC/Monster/Rat/M)
                    For(var/mob/NPC/Monster/Rat/M in world)
                        usr.Experience += M:EXP
                        alert("Congratulations: You gain [usr.Experience] Exp  5 Silver!")

for(var/mob/NPC/Monster/Rat/M in locate(5,145,1))
        M.HPnpc -= rand(1,3)
        usr <<"You attacked!"
        if(M.HPnpc <= 0)
             Win(M) //Pass M into the proc
             del M


Make sure you send the monster mob to your Win proc. One of the parameters it was expecting was a mob, but since one wasn't given null was passed in and was causing the error.
