Code:
mob/verb/showsave()
    var/list/save = src.vars
    for(var/x in save)
        if(x in donotsave) //donotsave is just a list of text strings.
            continue
        if(istype(save[x],/list))
            world << "List:"
            save[x] = list2params(save[x])
        world << "[x] == [save[x]]"


Problem description:

Lists are not being converted into parameters. any reason why?

var/list/save = src.vars


save is now, literally, src.vars. Anywhere you write save, you could write src.vars instead. So, when you try to replace src.vars["contents"] with a text string, it doesn't work, because contents does not allow that.

Just output the list2params() in place, rather than attempting to reassign values.

Ah, silly on my part.

Thanks!
