This sounds like some part of your source code is shutting the game down. You didn't by any chance just "acquire" this source code, instead of writing it yourself, now did you?

So, you are using "ripped" code (something you did not write yourself), right?
In that case, I'm sorry, but it is highly likely that the code you're using is the source of your problems (pun intended).

Can you run other games like Castle without trouble?

What happens if you try to compile and run this source code in a new project:

mob
    verb
        Dir_test()
            world << "Direction: [src.dir]"

In that case I'm sorry that I misunderstood you.

You did not answer my questions though.
I know what that code is supposed to do, I meant to ask what really happens if you try to compile and run this source code in a new project.
In order to see if there is a problem with your BYOND version, or with your code.
And I asked if you could run other games like the one I linked you to for the exact same reason, to narrow down the problem.

I'm sorry to say, but if a normal bare test environment runs just fine and you can even host and run a full scale game, then the issue is likely within your own code.

The fact that this happens to others just like you seems to confirm that it is a problem with your code and not an individual bug.

I would suggest seeking help on the Developer Forum (Code Problems). They are going to need code snippets though. So in advance, you might want to try and comment out parts of your code and see where exactly the problem is located.
