ok..I'm having some problems with this code..

this is the code for you to summon the bat.

mob/Bat
    icon='Druids.dmi'
    icon_state="Bat"


mob/SU
    verb
        Summon_Bat()
            set category="Battle"
            if (usr.bat<=usr.batmax)
                usr<<"<font color=white><b>You summon a bat to help you."
                new /mob/Bat(locate(usr.x+1,usr.y,usr.z))


and this is the code for the bat to follow you.

client
    North()
        if(usr:bat==1)
            step(usr,NORTH)
            walk_to(usr,usr.loc,1,1)
            return
        else
            step(usr,NORTH)
            return
    South()
        if(usr:bat==1)
            step(usr,SOUTH)
            walk_to(usr,usr.loc,1,1)
            return
        else
            step(usr,SOUTH)
            return
    East()
        if(usr:bat==1)
            step(usr,EAST)
            walk_to(usr,usr.loc,1,1)
            return
        else
            step(usr,EAST)
            return
    West()
        if(usr:bat==1)
            step(usr,WEST)
            walk_to(usr,usr.loc,1,1)
            return
        else
            step(usr,WEST)
            return

(I got that from GreenLimes Petting Zoo Demo)

But instead of it moving it just sitds there

Try something like,

mob/verb/SummonBat()
var/mob/M = new/mob/Bat(locate(src.x+1,src.y,src.z))
walk_to(M,src,1,0)

That should work, tell me if it doesn't. ALso tell me if that is not what you wanted.

Ok..I put in your code and now I'm getting a Inconsistent indentation error.I used tabs not spaces BTW

mob/Bat
    icon='Druids.dmi'
    icon_state="Bat"
    layer=5
    density=0


mob/SU
    verb
        Summon_Bat()
            set category="Battle"
            if (usr.bat<=usr.batmax)
                usr<<"<font color=white><b>You summon a bat to help you."
                var/mob/M = new/mob/Bat(locate(src.x+1,src.y,src.z))
                walk_to(M,src,1,0)

Now I have another problem..When the bat Enters an area that teleports you it causes and Illigal Operation error and shuts it down.Here is where it enters that messes it up...

    DarkE
        icon='Forest Of Darkness.dmi'
        icon_state="darkness"
        layer=5
        name=""
        Entered()
            usr.loc=locate(80,148,2)
            src<<"<font color=white><b>Now entering Neophyte Island."
            src<< sound('World4.mid',repeat=1)

If it's an illegal operation error, you should report it to Dantom! Illegal errors should never happen, and if they do it's BYOND's problem, not yours. Good luck!
