Code:

// Mob // 
        Start()
            set hidden = 1
            if(Black)
                for(var/mob/M in world)
                    if(Black == M)
                        M.icon_state = "b[M.Piece]"
                        M.Create_Trackers()

        Create_Trackers()
            switch(src.Piece)
                if("Rook")
                    var/X = 4
                    var/Y = NORTH
                    while(X > 0)
                        var/turf/T = get_step(src,Y)
                        if(T.density == 1)
                            return
                        else
                            var/obj/Tracker/A = new (T, src)
                            walk(A,Y,0)
                        X --
                        Y = turn(Y, -90)

// Object // 
        New(loc,mob/M)
            ..()
            if(M)
                src.OwnerPiece = M.Piece

// Turf // 

        Entered(obj/O)
            if(istype(O,/obj/Tracker))
                var/obj/P = O.type
                new P (src.loc)

Problem description:
Somewhere in my code, this just went wrong. Now when a person creates trackers, they're created in the wrong location. They're always made in the lower left. Results do not change no matter where I create the trackers from. I feel like the walk proc is being re-routed, but that's my best guess.

Not entirely sure what you're trying to do, but I imagine your problem is that you're setting the new tracker obj's location to an /area.

        Entered(obj/O)
            if(istype(O,/obj/Tracker))
                var/obj/P = O.type
                new P (src.loc) //<<

Lugia319	Dahhhhhh. Why did I not notice that I had put loc instead of src! Thanks for picking that out.
