http://bwicki.byond.com/ByondBwicki.dmb?ErrorCodes

error: compile failed (possible infinite cross-reference loop)

Problem: Usually this happens because you're using a var the same place you first define it.
Fix: Define the var first, then change it.
Example:
var/thing = "This is a [thing]."

That line is prefectly legal without the var/ part, if thing is defined somewhere else.

var/thing = "duck"thing = "This is a [thing]."


find out yourself

Ok, your problem is simble. You're attempting to add an overlay to a list, not to each individual mob. The best way to actually do this, IMHO, would be to use a for loop and iterate over a list of all the mobs in the range you want. below is an example that should work, if not at least I think it should help. I'm currently in class, and do not have access to BYOND to test this out.

Hope this helped you.

obj/Bass_Summon_chip
    icon='cheese.dmi'

    verb
        Summon_Bass()
            set category = "Fight"
            var/mob/M = usr
            if(M.Custom >= 50)
                var/temp = M.icon // hold the icon in a variable
                var/mob/E
                M.icon = 'bass_summ.dmi'
                spawn(15)
                view(5)<< "<font color = brown><BIG>[M] : Multi Gun!!!! </BIG></font>"
                for(var/mob/E in oview(4))
                    E.overlay += bshot
                    sleep(1)
                    E.HP -= 220
                    sleep(3)
                    E.overlay += bshot
                    sleep(1)
                M.icon = temp // revert the icon back
            else

You haven't tried. You've only asked him to show some more code. That isn't considered helping, but asking for more code to see if you can help. You haven't come to the helping part yet.

There aren't any bold parts; You can't put a HTML tag, well, actually you can, but it won't be executed.

And please be more specific on your question, I barely understood it..

only all look this:
i use his codes :
        Summon_Bass(mob/M in oview(2))
            if(usr.Custom >= 200)
                var/bshot = 'bshot.dmi'
                var/mob/W = locate(/mob in oview(3))
                var/mob/Y = locate(/mob in oview(2))
                var/mob/Z = locate(/mob in oview(1))
                set category = "Fight"
                var/temp = usr.icon // hold the icon in a variable
                usr.icon = 'bass_summ.dmi'
                spawn(15)
                view(5)<<"<font color = brown><BIG>[usr] : Multi Gun!!!! </BIG></font>"
                M.overlays += bshot
                W.overlays += bshot
                Y.overlays += bshot
                Z.overlays += bshot
                M.HP -= 220
                W.HP -= 220
                Y.HP -= 220
                Z.HP -= 220
                M.overlays -= bshot
                W.overlays -= bshot
                Y.overlays -= bshot
                Z.overlays -= bshot
                spawn(5)
                usr.icon = temp // revert the icon back
                usr.Custom -= 200
            else
                usr << "You Dont Have Enough Custom!"


and they gived to me this problem, only WHEN I USE THE VERB:

runtime error: Cannot read null.overlays
