Combat HUD

Overview

Combat HUD OXP

The Combat HUD has been optimised for combat situations. The vital information (Laser temperature, shields and Energy) has been grouped together on the right side to allow at-a-glance assessment during combat. The console messages are also here, above the gauges, and the status light and joystick sensitivity (where selected) also appear here.

On the left side of the main scanner are the speed, pitch and roll, fuel, cabin temperature and altimeter gauges. The aegis and scoop indicators are also here, and the comms messages will be displayed above these gauges.

If a scanner targeting enhancement is fitted the reticule will turn red when the target is centered. The OXP contains four HUD options, depending on how many pylons your ship has, and whether a joystick is used. The standard HUD will accomodate up to Ten pylons and the uber HUD will accomodate up to the maximum of Sixteen pylons. There are stick and no-stick options for both.
