Ok so I have a proc that gives host commands to the person hosting the game but I don't know how to call the proc when a person pushes the host button.

If somone can tell me how to do this or knows for a fact that there is no way to do please tell me.

If you want to just give them the host commands at Login(), do this:

client/proc/ishost()
  return (!address || address == world.address || address == "127.0.0.1") //returns 1 if the client is the host

mob/proc/hostcommands() //replace this with your proc
    src << "Host power!"
    
mob/Login()
    if(client.ishost()) //check to see if the person who logged in is the host or not
        hostcommands() //give them the host commands
    ..()


Or if you want to give them powers when they actually hit the host button:

client/proc/ishost()
  return (!address || address == world.address || address == "127.0.0.1")
 
world
    OpenPort()
        for(var/mob/M in world) //loop through all the mobs in the world
            if(M.client && M.client.ishost()) //locate the host
                M.hostcommands() //give them power
        ..() //start hosting

mob/proc/hostcommands() //replace this with your proc
    src << "Host power!"


In the future, please only post in Code Problems if you've actually got some code.
