When I kill an NPC, the death alert box comes up for me! is there any way to stop this? Also, how do I test a movable for its area?

Its not a BYOND bug. I just worked out a way around it:

if(src.client)
var/B = input("Blah blah blah","Blah box.")

etc etc

Alternatively, you could use input(src,"",""), because there is a default first argument of usr in input, you have to override it. They really should clear things like that up in the tutorials. Same with the view()-type procs.

OK. Thanks. Now could you please address my other question, how do you test a moveables area?

M.loc.loc

Unless if they are in the contents of an atom/moveable (obj or mob), then you need

M.loc.loc.loc.
