Progress. This is with no map at all.

Are any of your ists defined as turf, atom, or datum variables?

These are all listing I have for those..

atom
var/tmp/list/hitlist
var/circlecooldownlist
var/tmp/Name[2]
var/tmp/Name2[2]
var/tmp/NameOutline[2]

I have no listing variables for datums or turfs
Oct 3 2015, 5:14 pm
atom
var/tmp/list/hitlist
var/circlecooldownlist
var/tmp/Name[2]
var/tmp/Name2[2]
var/tmp/NameOutline[2]

Bingo.

You really only want those defined on things that actually have names, cooldowns, or whatever hitlist does.

This is a classic case of embedding behavior too low in the hierarchy.

$5 all of these things should be embedded in /mob.

This, and you should probably be initializing those lists when you're ready to use them.

I see your ten and raise you five.

is there a way you can initialize an array like that in realtime or is it not possible? Name=new(2)?
Oct 3 2015, 5:55 pm
Question: What's the name array for? It's probably better to chase down a better implementation than try to find workarounds.

You can always do something like:

var/L[]

randomProc() 
    var/M[2]
    L = M

//i think you can also do

   M = list(2)


Probably. Or look for a better way.

Fat Albert got it right, it's new /list (2), where /list can be left out of the variable is a list type.

yeah thx guys. I got it. I still would like for you to look at something tomorrow if you still got time. And thank Kaiochao on that information about listing earlier I did some heavy revisions on my source about that bad listing habit of mine. I'll let you know if it seems to have improved anything.
