game_del()
A small proc I've made that I find very helpful in my games, I thought I would share it.
This deletion method wont return your code like the built-in del does.

proc game_del(atom/a) var/list/built_in = list("type","parent_type","gender","verbs","vars","group") for(var/v in a.vars) if(!(v in built_in)) a.vars[v] = null |

If you're wondering, garbage collection isn't my strong point...

I want to delete it, when all its variables are null like this, it sets its loc to zero, and deletes any references to the object leaving it to the garbage collector.

Well, you could do it manually, but that system works in fine. Could be used for starting new games or something, but either way I'd say that's an efficient way of exterminating all non-built in variables.
