Code:
mob/clone
    icon = 'Monsters.dmi'
    icon_state = "Chimera"
    density = 1

    proc/move()
        for(var/mob/M in oview())
            if(get_step_away(src,M,6))
                if(!M.client)
                    walk_to(src,M,1,4)
                    src.Attack(M)
                else
                    if(src.owner == M.key)
                        walk_towards(src,M)
            else
                continue
        spawn(10) move()
    proc/attackmonster()
        for(var/mob/monster/M in oview())
            if(get_step_away(src,M,6))
                if(M.client)
                    continue
                else
                    walk_towards(src,M)
                    src.Attack(M)
            else
                return..()
        spawn(20) attackmonster()

    New()//When created
        attackmonster()
        move()


Problem description:
1: When another player creates a Chimera/Clone the other players clone/chimera will follow it also along with the person who created it meaning it goes back and forth. 2: I can't get it to attack monsters in view.

Hey,

Try this revised code:
mob/clone
    icon = 'Monsters.dmi'
    icon_state = "Chimera"
    density = 1
    var
        mob/owner //set when player creates /mob/clone
        dead
    proc/Attack(mob/M)
        /*your code*/
    proc/move()
        var/mob/M
        var/noMons=1
        for(M in oview())
            if(get_step_away(src,M,6))
                if(!M.client)
                    walk_to(src,M,1,4)
                    noMons=0
                    if(get_step_away(src,M,1)) //new lines
                        src.Attack(M)
                    break             
         if(noMons&&get_step_away(src,src.owner,6))
            walk_towards(src,src.owner)            
        spawn(10) move()
    New()//When created
        move()

There did not seem to be much wrong with your code accept that attackmonster process seemed a little redundant since move does the same and more.
