i was using overlays to make multi tiles but i cant seem to make them dense

Nope. You just need objects that have no icon to follow the person around, them being dense. But then, you would be blocked by yourself. The only way to get it just right is to have the Enter() procs on the objects that prevents other people from entering them. That, or move them first.

obj/overlay
density = 1 icon = 'moo.dmi' usr.overlays += new/obj/overlay completley untested but should work | |
How will i do that garthor? This is for multitile mobs. I thought i would do sumthin new on byond. Its for a mob which takes up 6 tiles. I just overlayed the other parts but thee problem is the leg part and the head can walk over other ppls legs and heads!! so i need a way to solve that. Thanx in advance :)

The only way to get it just right is to have the Enter() procs on the objects that prevents other people from entering them. That, or move them first. Actually Enter() wouldn't be right, because to enter an object means to become part of its contents. What you're actually thinking of is a custom turf.Enter(). But you're actually right on the need for dense objects instead of overlays; there's no way around that. The trick is that the mob's Move() proc has to be overridden to account for this change. You'd probably also need to override turf.Enter() to explicitly allow a mob or segment to enter the turf if one of its other segments or the head is already there. Doing this right is a bit of a challenge, though. Lummox JR | |
var/icon/I = new('thingy.dmi')
src.overlays += I
src.overlays:density = 1
