    ..()

like that? i'm not really sure. but i also think you need to specify a location for each one.

ive done the location thingy

You need to make sure that the actual mob which is logged in is the path type of /mob/player. Otherwise, you will never add the hud objects.

On another note, you pretty much have many repeated lines of programming which could be shortened by a for loop, due to the convinience of your hud object names. With the handyness of new being able to create pathtypes from a text string, we can make that into two lines.

mob/proc/add_hud()
  for(var/x = 1 to 32) // loop from 1 to 32)
    src.client.screen += new "/obj/hud/hud[x]" ()


This should successfully add /obj/hud/hud1 to hud32 without the cluttered copy/paste lines. If you create more hud items, make sure they have the same name, and increase 32 to however many hud objects you have.

Actually, I don't think that work creaing a new text string. You'd have to text2path it first.

An easier way to do that is just to simply used typesof().
src.client.screen+=typesof(/obj/hud)
