Code:
world
    mob = /mob/player
mob
    var
        game
mob/player
    icon = 'Basic.dmi'
    icon_state = "player"
    density = 1
    game = "off"                
turf
    playercage1
        icon = 'cardmat.dmi'
        icon_state = "playercage1"
        Click()
            walk_to(usr,src)
        verb
            start_game(mob/M as mob in oview(0))
                M.game = "on"
                M << "GAME ON!!!"


Problem description:OK basically I have no idea why it is not outputting on the start game verb. I simply put the output part there to let me know that the game variable is switched to "on". This is a TCG. I have even tried putting it under the players mob. When I walk up to the turf the verb appears but does nothing. I know this A, because it doesn't output B,I made a stat which embedded the game var and it is still set to off when I click the verb. so any suggestions? (and pleeease no smart a** comments, I did look in the help guide and I looked in the forum.)

                set src in view(1)

Yes, but don't also use an argument, only the src setting is enough. usr is the player who ran the verb and src is the turf.
