How may I use this proc, I know it's kinda nooby to ask but I need to know.
world/OpenPort(port)
  // only allow subscribers to host
  if(host_is_subscribed)
    return ..()

I'm using the "full_access" thing on BYOND for subscribers.
I need to know how to make it so when someone tries to host and there not a subscriber, the game will not let them host.

The current mob/var for Subcribers is "full_access"

I would guess you check the value of world.host.mob.full_access and then return ..(port) to let the port open.

Yeah, something like that, but world.host is set to a text string (key), not a client object, so you can't do it directly like that. In fact the host may not even be logged in, if he's hosting through Dream Daemon, which could be a little problematic...

That would teach me not to wing an answer without checking the documentation. Presumably with DreamDaemon you'd either reject it outright (boo) or read in a 'host' value from somewhere.
