Code:
screen_loc = "1,0, 1:16,1:5"


How does this work? i read the help thing and it said for pixel offsets it uses the colon rather than pixel_x/y but im not sure how to put it in my code... any help? thanks

screen_loc="1:16, 1:16"

That puts something at x 1, y 1, pixel_x 16, pixel_y 16

screen_loc="4:35, 2:12"

That's x 4, y 2, pixel_x 35, pixel_y 12

You're subtracting a 'new' object, rather then the one that's currently there.

client.screen -= locate(/obj/HudBlue/db1) in client.screen

may work, but I can't remember if client.screen works like a regular list, and I have a suspicion that it may not.

If it doesn't work, you'll have to keep a reference to the HUD objects you're putting on their screen, and take them out that way.

Alternately, you could clear the entire HUD by setting client.screen to a blank list. That is:

client.screen=list()

You could use a for loop for this, because I'm pretty sure it doesn't work like a regular list. Something to the effect of

for(var/obj/dragonball/D in src.client.screen)
  del(D)


should work. Note that I didn't use the exact parent type because I forgot it when I was looking at this.

It does. The only strange ones I can think of are contents and overlays. At the very least, I know you can use locate() to search it (I do all the time).
