Could you provide detailed steps?
My guess would be that your code tries to include the file like this:
icon = "whatever.dmi"

Which would cause this kind of error.

(Sorry for the late reply)
This Doesn't have to do with coding, just regular opening files in the dream maker, like there's three ways how to do it and one makes it unable to read, 1.open it in a Byond game,which is fine.
2.Open it by just regularly opening it in the dream maker ( which makes it bugged)
3.Open the file in your own Byond Envirenment,which is fine.

I'm sorry, but I can not follow you completely yet.
What is the difference between "your own BYOND environment", "Dream Maker" and a "BYOND game"?
Could you provide a detailed, specific step by step description?
(Which program you're using/opening and where you click, or what you're typing)
