Overlays

Active effects HUD

On-screen indicator for timed effects: what's active and how much is left.

When several timed effects overlap, neither you nor the audience knows what's going on. The effects HUD fixes that: it shows each active effect on screen with its bar and remaining time.

Everything it can do

  • A chip per active effect, with a progress bar and remaining time.
  • Several simultaneous effects stacked.
  • Fed by the duration configured on each command.
  • Displayed through the disrupts overlay.
  • Visual language of symbols, numbers and colors: readable without reading.

When to enable it

It's essential in profiles with many timed modifiers (inverted controls, speed, gravity). In profiles with instant effects it adds little.

Step by step

  1. Set durations on the commands in your triggers.
  2. Add the disrupts overlay to your scene.
  3. Check in a match that chips appear and drain.
