Dev Journal #6 - HUD

HUD

We previously had a modified HUD that would display some additional information next to your hotbar. However, as we have come up with more things to add to your HUD, the limitations of the existing hotbar made it increasingly difficult to find space to add more. Therefore, we have completely revamped the HUD to allow us to show you more customized information!

Your HUD will now display your current vote count, the chat channel you are in, your money, your gems as it did prior. However, now your health, armor, food, oxygen, and vehicle health will display as well. Oxygen and vehicle health will only display when relevant (underwater or riding a vehicle that has health). This also supports off hand and will dynamically adjust. Health/hunger/oxygen/vehicle health has been scaled so that 100 is full.

Your HUD will also dynamically display experience in skills as you gain it. It will continuously update until you stop earning experience for a few seconds. If you earn experience in multiple skills at the same time it will be queued up to display afterward.

This means that you will no longer have control over your hotbar with your personal resource pack. In the future we plan to release other preset hotbars to allow you to choose which you like best, but for now this will be the only option.

Closing Remarks

Thank you for making it this far and continuing to be a supporter of the server while we are in development. I am excited to share the content with you and even more excited for the upcoming release for you to once again enjoy your time on PartyRealms.
