HeHe, ok but i dont see whats wrong, in the deathcheck i do src.loc=locate(loc,loc,loc) For the moving, and this is what the random combat turf is like:

turf
    Battle_Grass
        name = "Grass"
        icon = 'grass.dmi'
        icon_state="grass"
        Enter()
            if (!usr.client){return}
            if(!usr.Bnum)
                var/C=rand(1,30)
                if(C<8)
                    var{M;M1;M2;M3;A1;A2;R}
                    M=new/mob/monsters/Monster1
                    R=rand(1,2)
                    if(R==2){M1=new/mob/monsters/Monster1}
                    else{..()}
                    if(R==1){M2=new/mob/monsters/Monster1}
                    else{..()}
                    if(R<2){M2=new/mob/monsters/Monster1}
                    else{..()}
                    if(R>1){M3=new/mob/monsters/Monster1}
                    else{..()}
                    A1=new/mob/Allied/Allied1
                    A2=new/mob/Allied/Allied1
                    usr.Rbattle(M,M1,M2,M3,A1,A2)
            return 1
    New()
        ..()
        icon_state=pick(icon_states(icon))

Look up locate() . It doesn't take 3 turfs as arguments.

in the referance this is what it says:

"

locate proc
Format:
locate(Type) in Container
locate(X,Y,Z)
locate(Tag)
locate(TextRef)
Returns:
An object of the specified type or the turf at the given coordinates. If a text string is given in place of an object type, the object with the same tag is found. If a container is given, only objects directly within that object are searched.
Args:
Type: An object prototype or tag. If locate() is being used in an assignment to a variable with a declared type, this argument is optional and will default to the type of the variable being assigned.
Container: An optional container object. (The default is world.)
X,Y,Z: A set of numerical coordinates.
Tag: The value of an object's tag variable.
TextRef: An embedded object reference created by the \ref text macro.
Types are matched in the same manner as istype(). In other words, locate(/obj) could return an instance of something derived from /obj, such as /obj/armor.

If there is more than one instance of the specified type, the first one found will be chosen.

Example:
var/mob/shopkeeper/M = locate()
if(M)
usr << "Found the shopkeeper."
else
usr << "Could not find the shopkeeper."

This looks for a mob of a type /mob/shopkeeper in the world (world.contents).

Example:
usr.Move(locate(/turf/Home))

This "teleports" the usr to a turf of the type /turf/Home.

Example:
usr.Move(locate(1,2,3))

This moves the usr to the turf at coordinates (x,y,z) = (1,2,3). "

by src.loc=locate(loc,loc,loc) I meant (x,y,z) not moving via the turf.

You're meant to READ the reference, not copy and paste stuff from it.
