At the end of the proc, you need to let BYOND do the default login behavior to put the mob on the map. To do that, you call ..():

mob/Login()
// Your stuff here

// Now let superclass do its behavior.
return ..()

Pyro something you need to learn is to close your</font> HTML tags..

Not to be rude but it does get kinda annoying

That is because the Login() procedure, by default, moves the player onto the map. Since you don't have "..()" inside the Login() proc, it is overriding the former proc. And because it is overridden, the player isn't put on the map.

Here is how it should look.

mob/Login()
var/N = input("What's your name?","Name:")
usr.name = N
..() //run the former Login() proc as well

..() proc
Login() proc

Also not to be rude, but if we wanted red as a colour on the forums, we would have set it up that way. Don't use other colours except for emphasis. And remember to close your tags, as others were happy to point out.
