How could you connect me to and object or mob..
Like if you were connected to a person by a rope:

Ex:
.. is the rope
(You).......(mob/obj)

Like if you threw a rope, and it connected from you too it.

I'm not sure what you want, but hopefully this is it.
mob/verb/Throw_Rope(mob/M in oview(4))
    M<<"[usr] has roped you!"
    if(M.Move||usr.Move)
        M<<"Your stuck in the rope."

This should work, althout its untested.

I _THINK_ he wants some sort of physical (visual) way to connect a rope line from the usr to the other mob with a rope wire >_>

Er, correct me if I am wrong. If I am correct, do you want everyone to see the rope line or just the person who threw the rope and the person whom was caught?

Ok, if he wants that...
mob/verb/Throw_Rope(mob/M in oview(4))
    M<<"[usr] has roped you!"
    var/rope/R=new(usr.loc)
    walk_to(R,M)
    if(M.Move)
        M<<"Your stuck in the rope."

This should work.

That'd be pretty difficult to do, I'd suggest looking at Kunark's demo (http://developer.byond.com/hub/Kunark/ Real-TimeTile-BasedLineEffects), and use a method similar to that.

Difficult?No, it wouldn't my example is simple, and will work.He doesnt need sme so advanced.I do believe thats pixel movement of lines, which he seems to NOT want.
