Sometimes, when people die, they don't leave the map. It says, the person dies. I happens when they move. Like if they die when moving, they stay in the same spot... Gughunter has seen this last night during the test. Its kinda hard to explian.

Thanks for reading!

Have you done anything to overide mob/Move() or the client movement procs?

In response to Shadowdarke
 
mob/Move()
    if(usr.walk == 1)
        src.walk = 0
        sleep(usr.wspeed)
        src.walk = 1
        ..()
    if(usr.hiding == 1)
        usr.hiding = 0
        usr.icon = usr.oldicon
        usr.layer =MOB_LAYER+2
    else
        return 0


Just have that

Your proc uses sleep(), which pauses execution of that program thread, then execute the default Move(). If someone is moved someplace else while the proc is sleeping, it goes ahead and Move()s the mob to it's target location when the sleep time is over.

Try this instead:
mob/Move()
    if(usr.walk == 1)
        src.walk = 0
        spawn(usr.wspeed) src.walk = 1
        ..()
