I have never heard the expression "smoked out" before...but "röka på" is definitely not used to refer to smoking tobacco.

Note from asker:
Yes, that's how I've seen it used. But is it equivalent to the expression "smoked out" - which implies smoking pot (and not tobacco or other drugs)? |

attacked
No context, so I am just guessing it is used to mean "attacked".
Peer comment(s):

Per-Erik Nordström
: rykt ihop säger man om en attack. De två rök ihop på skolgården idag och har rykt ihop förut. Röka på är nåt annat.
