HUD Controller Devices

You can use the HUD Controller device to show or hide parts of the player's HUD, or turn off the HUD completely. You can also use this with other devices like the HUD Message device, the Map Indicator device, and the Message Feed device to determine exactly how much information players have during your game, as well as how and when they get that information.

There are several ways you can change what information shows in the HUD: change it in the User Settings, use a Team Settings & Inventory device, use the HUD Controller device, or change it in the Island Settings. The priority order for changes to the HUD is as follows:

• User Settings (press Esc to open the Game Menu, then click Settings) take priority over the other settings.
• Team Settings & Inventory device takes priority over the HUD Controller and Island Settings.
• HUD Controller takes priority over Island Settings.
• The Island Settings are lowest in priority. If you want to use the Island ssettings to determine what information is shown in the HUD, make sure that the HUD Controller options are set to Do Not Override.
