Please read the DM Guide, or follow a few demos (use the ones located here)
Your not going to learn much if you don't learn the principle behind what your doing.

Simple.
By making a Mob Tree.

/mob/ <-- First Generation /mob/
/npc/ <-- Second Generation /mob/npc/
testbuddy <-- Third Genereation /mob/npc/testbuddy

Then simply assign it a icon and a icon_state (there both variables, hint hint)

Don't copy and paste learn from it and try making your own code read this and this.

:O goddamnit, he says to read the documentation but your too lazy, and then when its spelled out for you, you dont even know how to TAB IN code blocks, which is the most basic fundamental aspect of byond coding. Christ. How can people help you if you dont know the bare basics? READ THE GUIDE.

I don't want to sound like a jerk, but if you can't slowly read through the DM guide and gain something out of whats being said there; chances are coding in BYOND is out of your depth.

No, because if we blatantly tell you how to do it, and you don't *learn*, you're not going to be any better than the rest of the incompetent "programmers" on BYOND.

Everything you need to know can be found in the guide, or the reference.

Look up what icon states are.

Do these questions apply to you?
  • Do you ask the same, tired questions that others ask?
  • Do you clearly lack the ability or the inclination to look it up in the Guide or DM Reference?
  • Do you refuse to take the time to ask coherent, specific questions?
  • Do you think helping you must be the high point of our day?
  • Are you trying to get some poor, well-intentioned person to do all your thinking for you?
If so, YOU might be a Help Vampire!
