Try this:

turf
    warp
        icon = 'warp.dmi'
        icon_state = "warp"
        Entered()
            usr.x = 50 //Teleports mob to the co-ordinates of X:50
            usr.y = 37 //Teleports mob to the co-ordinates of Y:37
            usr.z = 1  //Teleports mob to the co-ordinates of Z:1

Never ever use usr in Entered(). This is wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.

Always take the argument from Entered(); that's the atom that entered, which may not be the same as usr.

Oh sorry :-\

I have always used usr in Entered() and its worked all the time. So if thats wrong how would I go about it another way then Lummox?

turf
  Entered(atom/movable/A)
    A.loc=otherloc

That's the dirt-simplest approach, anyway.

The rule of thumb with usr is to never use it outside of a verb (or click/mousedown/etc.) unless you're absolutely sure you know what you're doing with it.
