I've been trying to figure out what the options I can set for NewClientHudElem are. I know how to create one but I just don't know the full list of options. example: Code Snippet Plaintext Copy self.HudIcon = NewClientHudElem(player); self.HudIcon.horzAlign = "left"; self.HudIcon.vertAlign = "middle"; I wanted to know what other things I can put besides .horzAlign such as setting an image/material.

I've been trying to figure out what the options I can set for NewClientHudElem are.

I know how to create one but I just don't know the full list of options.

example:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

self.HudIcon = NewClientHudElem(player);
self.HudIcon.horzAlign = "left";
self.HudIcon.vertAlign = "middle";

I wanted to know what other things I can put besides .horzAlign such as setting an image/material.

Some of the options I used in KC mod:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

	screen_text = NewClientHudElem( self ); 
	screen_text.alignX = "center"; 
	screen_text.alignY = "middle"; 
	screen_text.horzAlign = "user_center"; 
	screen_text.vertAlign = "user_bottom"; 
	screen_text.foreground = true; 
	screen_text.font = "default"; 
	screen_text.fontScale = 1.8; 
	screen_text.alpha = 0; 
	screen_text.color = ( 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 ); 
	screen_text SetText(defined_text);
	screen_text.y = -113;
	screen_text FadeOverTime(1);
	screen_text ScaleOverTime(2, 0, 0);
	screen_text delete();

ScaleOverTime seems to only work for shaders btw, if you are thinking of using this for text. But if its for icon like you have defined, then its all fine
Edit: Just saw bottom bit, lol. Change setText to setShader
