I have an object that i dont want to be able to pick up, so is there a way to make it that when i right click it, the "pick up" verb wont show?

I think you can override the verb and in the overridden verb you can just have set hidden=1.

obj/sword
    pick_up()
        name = "Pick Up"
        set hidden = 1
        usr.contents += src

Doesn't anyone thinks this is a bad idea? The post author wants the object to be unpickable. This variable just hides the verb and doesn't disables it. This means if someone types pick sword in input, the object will be picked up.

Point me to right direction if I'm wrong. :)

As long as only the verb for that specific object is overridden with the hidden setting and the verb has no programming whatsoever, then it will be fine and do absolutely nothing regardless.
