mob
    proc

                    M.Fatique-=1
                    sleep(10+M.adventurelevel)
                    if(M.Fatique>=5)
                        Fatique()
                    else
                        M<<"You're too tired to cut right now, rest please."
                        M.tired=1
        FatiqueActivate()
            var/mob/players/M
            M=usr
            M.fatiquestop=0
            if(M.fatiqueclock==0)
                Fatiqueclock()
            else
                Fatique()
        Fatiqueclock()
            var/mob/players/M
            M=usr
            M.fatiqueclock=1
            FatiqueActivate()
            sleep(50)
            M.fatiquestop=1


Problem description: The idea is that when a player is cutting the tree his fatique goes down by 1 every .. time. Now i coded the whole think but the problem is de fatique the fatique does go down but the rest of the code wont follow it stays with decreasing fatique. I hope this is explained correctly if you have a question about it reply pls ill watch this topic closely

The problem is that FatigueActivate() must complete before Cut() can finish. If you added "spawn() " before FatigueActivate(), that would make it work properly (well, more properly, it looks like you might be doing the same thing in your fatigue proc).

Also, instead of checking if a value is 1, you can just use if(var), which will check if the value is true (any value except 0, null, or ""). Conversely, instead of checking if a value is 0, you can use if(!var) to see if var is false (0, "", or null). Of course, this doesn't usually work if you're using more than 0 and 1 for values, but I think you'd be good here.

In response to Jeff8500 (#1)
It worked thank you very much!
The only think what was missing was the spawn(), really thank you alot!
