If youve ever played REO 1 or 2 you know the autohost/manual host feature where the host can pick the map then you can join then when everyone is dead it resets and the host picks again? well i need those codes and i have no earthly idea what the code is also can you help with my moves? such as shooting a beam with a trail behind it

This should be in Developer How-To, since you don't have any actual code.

However, to answer your first question...

proc
    promptHost() //New procedure to check for the host
        for(var/mob/curHost in world) //Loops thru every mob in the world
            if(!curHost.client.address) //If they don't have an address, they're usually the host. There's some exceptions, however.
                switch(input(curHost,"Which map would you like to select?","Map Selection","Map 1") in list("Map1","Map2","Map3")) //Does a switch and asks the player  what map they want.
                    if("Map1") //If they chose the first map...
                        //Move all users to the map.
                    if("Map2")
                        //Move all users to the map.
                    if("Map3")
                        //Move all users to the map.


Just call it after world.New() ..()
