The Conjuror	im trying to make a symbol ,but this symbol or icon needs to be on the screen, i sort of played around with the onscreeninventory code to get this code, and i keep getting this error: screen_loc (undefined var). I have the icon and everythig, the below code is the code i am currently using, Inv icon = 'cc.dmi' cc density = 0 layer = MOB_LAYER+10000 New(client/C) screen_loc = "1,2"

You have to make sure the atom is defined as an atom, and you're never really adding it to the screen:

obj
    Inv
        cc
            icon = 'cc.dmi'
            screen_loc = "loc here"//change this, it doesn't even have to be in New()
            New(client/C)
                C.screen += src

client/New()//when a client connects to a mob
    new/obj/Inv/cc(src)//call New() for the obj

The Conjuror	ok, no more errors, but when i log into my game the connection closes or failes. By the way, im not trying to make the symbol able to store something like an obj. So the only way for me to make my game start up is to delete this code, got any ideas?

Nadrew	Oops, you need to add ..() before new/obj/Inn/cc(src) in client/New().
