Team Info HUD

Description
Adds player status icons and a team score comparison to the HUD. This mod must be installed on the server.

Team scores are the accumulated total of all points earned by players while on that team, not just the sum of scores from the current set of players. This means that a team's score is not changed if a player leaves or switches.

Commanders have some extra features:

  • Click on a player icon to select that player, then click again to centre the player on-screen
  • Player icons turn red as players take damage
  • Selected units are highlighted green on the minimap
  • Hotkey grouping is more responsive than in vanilla NS2

I made this mod to give players a better understanding of what was happening at a strategic level and to visibly link their personal victories to the team's overall success. I had new players in mind when I started, but the finished product is useful to everyone.

You can configure how much of the new HUD is displayed with the console command teaminfohud.

Yes, with no particular license. Do as you will with it. https://github.com/Artfunkel/TeamInfoHUD

This is cool. What's the license on this? Do you have a github link? Can other modders use this code?
Artfunkel  [author] 7 Sep, 2014 @ 5:53am 
Added it.
Artfunkel  [author] 3 Apr, 2014 @ 11:04am 
No, but that's a good idea. I'll add it when I'm not so busy.

is there an option of sorts to make this only display for commanders?

All hail to workshop :B1: Thanks for fixing this.

Hmm, despite generating a changelog entry the last publish didn't actually change the files. I've re-published and everything is now in order.

@Artfunkel the error just appeared again in the shine error log, so i checked your code and it's still there.

in lua/TeamInfoHUD-Server.lua

remove line 31 - 44

You might have a look at the new PlayerInfoEntity Class which was added with 263 ;)
