            var/amount = input("Level up how many times?") as num
            while(amount > 0)
                M.exp = M.maxexp
                amount -= 1

Try changing mob/characters/M into mob/M. This is probably caused by the fact that you're the only one in the world that has a mob path of /mob/characters/M.

Try this
LEVELUP(mob/players/M in world)
                set category = "GameMod"
                var/levels = input("How many Levels?")as num
                while (levels >=1)
                    if (istype(M,/mob/players))
                        M.exp+=(M.maxexp-M.exp)
                        level(M)
                        levels --

Of course it did, you almost always get inconstant indentation when you copy/paste things of the forum.

*sigh*. Seriously, if you can't fix an indendation problem, yet you posted about 6 topics already, then you should just quit everything. THAT or ATLEAST go out and READ something. DM Guide / Tutorials / Reference for all I care.

This might make a difference but im not certain... I saw once a post about pasting this into a blank .dm file then copy and pasting it from the new .dm file and into the main. Hope this helps.

verb
    LEVELUP(mob/players/M in world)
        set category = "GameMod"
        var/levels = input("How many Levels?")as num
        while (levels >=1)
            if (istype(M,/mob/players))
                M.exp+=(M.maxexp-M.exp)
                level(M)
                levels --

verb/LEVELUP(mob/players/M in world)
    set category = "GameMod"
    var/levels = input("How many Levels?")as num
    for(var/I = 0, I<Levels, I++)
         if(istype(M,/mob/players)) M.exp+=(M.maxexp M.exp); level(M)


I'm such a space-monger.
