Feature: Info text on hud
« on: November 03, 2010, 07:45:52 PM »
Add two serversettings like "sv_info1" and "sv_info2".
A serveradmin can write some text there and it will be shown in the low left corner (unused place; red in the picture) on the hud from each client.

The text in the picture, could be made with this for example:
sv_info1 "[OTB] Clan"
sv_info2 "Since 2005"
So there is one setting for each line.



I made the text in the picture with this code in the cl_scrn.c, but its better to have a serversetting, where each admin can make his own message. I don't know, how to do that.
Code: [Select]
re.DrawString(viddef.width/16-1*hudscale, viddef.height-20*hudscale,"[OTB] Clan");
re.DrawString(viddef.width/16-1*hudscale, viddef.height-10*hudscale,"Since 2005");

Czechs tend to hide in barrels on that corner, I'll need it.
Not a bad idea but I agree with ab.

On lower resolutions, that would overlap the CO2.  I think it would be a better idea to improve the MOTD screen or add server info to the scoreboard screen.
