How would one go about setting the size of an object? The problem I have is: I have an object with a .bmp icon state that is 11 by 11 tiles big. When I have the object created on a client's screen, however it is only one tile big. How do I fix this?

Like so:
obj
  asdf
    icon='hud.png'
    New(loc,client/c)
      if(c)
        for(var/t in icon_states(icon))
          var/obj/asdf/s=new
          s.icon_state=t;s.screen_loc=t
          c.screen+=src
      ..()


Rawr, will that work?

Well, there aren't any icon states in the file. There's just the .bmp icon, which is one icon.

(Edit)
I tried doing it..
obj
    Hud
        Hud_Base
            layer=MOB_LAYER+1
            icon = 'HudBorders.bmp'

            New(loc,client/c)
                if(c)
                    for(var/t in icon_states(icon))
                        var/obj/Hud/Hud_Base/s=new
                            s.icon_state=t
                            s.screen_loc=t
                            c.screen+=src
                            ..()


I got these errors:

Hud.dm:11:error::invalid expression
Hud.dm:10:s :warning: variable defined but not used

Don't indent under new()
[edit]The new() where you're creating the hud obj
