verb
     Door()
            set category = "Build"
            if(src.Nobuild())
                var/obj/Doors/BlueStoneDoor/O = new(src.loc)
                //O.owner = "[usr.key]"
                //var/password = input("What is the password(leave it blank for none)")as text
                //if(!password)
                //  O.pass = "None"
                //  return
                //O.pass = password


This does nothing, and I have no idea why, I shouldn't need an icon state because it only has the default(null) state, and I've searched for demos, and on the forums and this is what I made from those but it doesnt work...

In response to Xx Dark Wizard xX (#1)
my problem was my proc NoBuild()
mob/proc
    Nobuild()
        for(var/area/NoBuild/O in oview(0,src))
            if(istype(O,/area))
                src<<"You cannot build here"
                return 1
            else
                return 0


But should have had

mob/proc
    Nobuild()
        for(var/area/NoBuild/O in oview(0,src))
            if(istype(O,/area/NoBuild))//the check was for any area on the original but now checks for NoBuild area
                src<<"You cannot build here"
                return 1
            else
                return 0


Thanks for the help

make it an area, and when you enter take away the build verb, and when you exit add the verb.
