Which Proc?

Fri, 10 Aug 2012 21:30:00 +0000

Code:

obj/Auto_Door
    density=1

    icon='doors.dmi'
    icon_state="AutoDoor"
    /*proc*/()
        src.density=0
        spawn(1)
            src.icon_state="AutoDoorFlick"
            spawn(30)
                src.density=1
                src.icon_state="AutoDoor"
    DblClick()
        if(src.owner==usr.key)
            del(src)
        else
            usr<<"That isn't yours to delete!"

Problem description:
I'm trying to find a proc that will trigger the effect when the usr tries step on it.

See the notation.

Note: I tried Bump(), Enter(), Entered()

Is BYOND one of a kind?

Tue, 19 Jun 2012 23:49:07 +0000

Is BYOND the only...thingy, like this? I mean, there's Unity and all, but BYOND seems too unique. The language was derived from other languages, so it couldn't be the only one of its kind. Is it?

Better Than The Blue Book?

Sun, 10 Jun 2012 04:21:01 +0000

I've read through the DM Guide and I've learned a lot, but I've been searching for something more. No one will teach you everything about DM, you have to make use of what you have and turn it into what you want, right? But is there anything that goes a little more in depth? I don't feel like the DM Guide helps me enough. Can someone direct me to a possible alternative?
