How do you make something talk when you bump into it? The code?

I think you would use something like this
mob
George
Bumb(mob/George)
switch(input(stuff
I think that works

Erm.. not quite :)...

Few things:

1. Bumb() isn't a proc :). Check your spelling there, bucko.

2. Might wanna close your parenthesis.

Other than that, it's all good.

I'll expand on the system a tad.
mob/proc/Bumped(mob/who) //for when something is bumped

mob/Bump(mob/M) //when you bump into something
   M.Bumped(src) //call it's Bumped()

//now, we can simply make new systems for each mob, easily!

mob
   Shopkeep
      Bumped() //override the Bumped() proc, which is nothing by default
         who << "Hey! Wanna buy something?"
   AngryMan
      Bumped()
         who << "AH! DON'T BUMP INTO ME, YOU INGRATE!"
   NiceMan
      Bumped()
         who << "Oh, very sorry, young man."

Er.. I haven't coded for so long, I'm getting carried away.

Anyhow, when defining a mob's properties for placement, just override the Bumped() proc for what you want it to say.

Well i know to close the paretnasies and i figured if he is using a bumb proc he would know to close then as well
I thought Bumb() was a proc well at least i learned something new here lol

Heh. May as well be.

Bump() is a proc, not Bumb() =P

Eck. It's my fault; I gave you faulty code... Just a sec, lemme whip up a correct version!

Okay. Here goes..
mob/proc/Bumped(mob/bywhom) //for when something is bumped, and by who

mob/Bump(mob/M)
    M.Bumped(src) //when you run into something, do whatever we set for it to do when bumped

//now, we can simply make new systems for each mob, easily!

mob
   Shopkeep
      Bumped(by)
         by << "Shopkeep: What would you like to buy?"

   AngryMan
      Bumped(by)
         by << "Angry Man: HEY! DON'T BUMP INTO ME!"

   NiceMan
      Bumped(by)
         by << "Nice Man: Oh, terribly sorry, young man."

Should work!

Sorry for all the hassle, and thanks for not yelling at me for being so accident-prone! :)

im still getting that stupid error about undefined proc
here it goes:

mob/proc/Bumped(usr) //for when something is bumped, and by who

mob/Bump(mob/M)
M.Bumped(src) //when you run into something, do whatever we set for it to do when bumped

//now, we can simply make new systems for each mob, easily!

turf
Boy
Bumped(mob/M) <-----This part keeps saying undefined proc
usr << "Shopkeep: What would you like to buy?"

You've declared Bumped() as a mob proc, not a turf proc :). Change turf to mob.
