If one creates an environment and then creates a variable with the exact same name (minus the .dme extenstion) the variable will default to 0 regardless of its initialization.
Numbered Steps to Reproduce Problem:
1) Create a new environment (ie: cake)
2) Create a new .dm file
3) In that dm file, define a variable with the same name as the environment (ie: mob/var/cake)
4) Output the variable (ie: world << cake)
Code Snippet (if applicable) to Reproduce Problem:
mob
var
cake = "I AM CAKE!"
Login()
world << cake
Expected Results:
The name of the environment has no relation to the value of a variable
Actual Results:
A variable with the same name as the environment defaults to 0
