- Can you use vars and locate? Example: var/my_var = locate(usr.x,usr.y+1,usr.z) and then use it like, my_var.density = 1.
- Can you use for() in the following way?: for(var/turf/T in locate(usr.loc))
There are more, i just need some ways to get the turf (or atom) in a certain x,y,z coordinates, into a var, do i can edit thier vars.
Thank you

Because my_var doesn't have a opacity var because it's not defined as an atom.
var/turf/my_var = locate(x,y,z) |

runtime error: Cannot modify null.opacity. Thanks -Rcet |

Rcet come on msn or are you ignoring me :|.

Yes, that's perfectly acceptable. locate(x,y,z) should always return a turf, but it will at any rate be an atom; use var/atom/my_var and then density is a known var belonging to it.
No, because locate() returns a turf, and a turf won't have other turfs within its contents. (Also, locate(usr.loc) is redundant; usr.loc should do well enough as long as it's a turf.)
