What's the code where you get these errors?

You will have to show use the code that is causing the errors to be sure.

proc/Damage(mob/M)
var/hit = roll(1,20)
var/dodge = roll(1,20)
var/damage = rand(src.TATK_minimum,src.TATK_maximum)
if (M.newbie == 1)
if (istype(M,/mob/races))
src << "They are a newbie and cant be attacked!."
return
Thats the part with the errors.

Well I tested the source code myself and BYOND just seems to be giving a weird error. Your only problem is that you have the indentation messed up and you need to remove one tab for the if statement and everything after it.

a tip is to highlight all of under the if() statement, hold shift, and press tab. =D
