using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine.UI;

public class Missioncontroll : MonoBehaviour {

	// Username 
	public static GameObject UsernameInput;
	public static  string Username = "";
	static string UpdateAccountLink = "http://www.mysite/updateaccount.php";
	static string REFAccountLink = "http://www.mysite/refreshaccount.php";


	// Account Information Fighetrs/Reacorcess OWNED:

I’m not sure I understand your problem. Missioncontroll.updateacount that you’re refering to doesn’t seem to exist. Unless you meant MissionControll.UpdateAccount, in which case, this function is not tagged as static. In order to call MissionControll.UpdateAccount from another class you should declare it like that: static IEnumerator UpdateAccount()

Am I completely out of purpose or does it help?

Also, even if I don’t understand how the title of your post is related to your actual question, I can answer it separately: “How do you access static to non-static void” => I’m pretty sure you cannot! You can access a static function/variable from a non-static function, but you cannot access a non-static function/variable from a static function.

That makes sens considering a static function of a class isn’t specifically bound to an instance of this class. So you can’t access other specific members of the class in a static function.
