                            usr<<"Sorry there is no one to trade with currently at this time."
                            return
                        var/mob/M as mob
                        var/r=input("Which person do you want to trade with?") in T
                        M=r

and the question is does this work???

afterwards I have it do inputs to M like so...

var/t=input(M,"What do you want?")

but it doesn't display the input...

Nadrew	Can you please surround the code with <DM> </DM> so we can actually read it?

Jun 5 2002, 7:23 pm In response to Nadrew
Jon Snow	there you go :) I didn't know about that hahaha :) didn't even know that was possible hey I learned something new today! :)

Foomer	Out of curiosity, how do you manage to get such a huge gap in your code? Couldn't you align it to the left side of the screen a little?

Jun 5 2002, 7:24 pm In response to Foomer
Nadrew	That's what copy/pasting to the forum does, I've noticed alot of empty space when doing so.

Jon Snow	I am not sure... I just used teh DM thing and when I cut and pasted it it made that big of a gap... well it's a snipet from a really long string of code, just a small fraction of it which is why it's sofar out... I believe anyways :)

Foomer	What exactly are you trying to achieve with the code, so I can know ideally what you want done?

Jun 5 2002, 7:37 pm In response to Foomer
Jon Snow	what I'm trying to do is pick a thing from that list, which is supose to be a mob. but for some reason when you pick from the list it doesn't recognize it as a mob!! so I assigned M as the thing you picked from the list... as hoping into turning it into a mob lol so I can do inputs and such... the thing is IT WORKS at parts like when I change avariable of M's it works, but inputs don't...

Jon Snow	I just realized even though it wasn't inputing me if I accepted the alliance (remember how M=r) I have var/s=input(M,"Do you accept?") in list ("Yes","no") it was still saying S is equal to yes!!!!! Quite strange if you ask me since it never gave me the input!!! and it didn't give the other mob an input so this is really strange...
