Considerations
- Date (and explanation of importance re Vanilla Game Code development <-> HUD development)
- Author
- HUD Selector compatible?
- No. of MFDs?
- Different HUDs for different green/yellow/red conditions/alerts? / Range of alerts shown / Docked HUD?
- Precision Joystick Indicator?
- Sensitive Reticle for on target?
- Actual speed shown? / Actual Torus speed shown?
- Distance from Compass target?
- Cargo Hold indicator?
- Hull indicator?
- Extras? (eg Vimana HUD's cornucopia of goodies, DeeperSpace's Risk Assessment, Xenon HUD's sights, Dangerous HUD's noises).
- Current Location Display & Current Risk Notifier (Deeper Space HUD)
- Weapons Bay Missile identifier? (ChupacabraHUD)
- Extra reticles for other lasers (Xenon)
- Glare filter? / Glare contrast? (for reading HUD in Glare - cf Xenon HUD)
- Explicit warnings: missile approach/temp/altitude/shields/energy banks?
- Equipment Lights?
- Vanilla Optional Equipment lights?
- OXP Equipment lights?
- Customisation:
- Choice of Colours? (Dangerous HUD & Xenon HUD)
- Choice of Cockpits? (Dangerous HUD)
- Natural materials? (Mega Walnut Dash)
- Large screen variant?
Large Scanner? - see image!
etc?
The most sophisticated HUDs seem to be CB-HUD Mark III, Dangerous HUD, Vimana, Vimana-X, Xenon & Z-GrOovY MiLHUD.
Do you think that the HUD is a cheat? Gnievmir's original Vimana HUD also improves your ship (adds speed, energy, missile slots & cargo capacity, and allows purchase of a super-laser), Deeperspace HUD warns about danger based on the ratio of pirates/Thargoids to police in the entire solar system.
