Code:

turf/var
    iceland=/turf/iceland
    yellow=rgb(255,255,0)

turf/iceland
    icon = 'iceland.dmi'
    verb
        color()
            iceland += yellow

Problem description:

when i compile this theres nothing wrong but when i press the verb it said


runtime error: type mismatch: /turf/iceland (/turf/iceland) += "#ffff00"
proc name: color (/turf/iceland/verb/color)
  usr: Guest (/mob)
  src: the iceland (36,25,1) (/turf/iceland)
  call stack:
the iceland (36,25,1) (/turf/iceland): color()

You're trying to add color to a type path. This doesn't work, because it doesn't make sense. What are you trying to accomplish?

yellow=rgb(255,255,0)

mob
verb
Color()
iceland += yellow
icon+=iceland

You can't take guesses when coding.

You may want to look up the Blend proc

Which icon are you talking about? Are you trying to change the .dmi file? Are you trying to change the color of one specific turf? Are you trying to change the color of EVERY turf? Pronouns don't work without context.
