Ping covers up Friends in rc3.

Post by Ghableska »

Hello everyone. I just downloaded rc3 and I have to say that it is wonderful. Thank you Z-Man and everyone else who worked on it. My problem is this:

The word ping in the indicator covers up the amount of friends remaining. I play on Fortress a lot and this comes in handy. I was wondering if there is a way to slide the bottom row indicators over a little bit to make room. And yes, turning off the ping indicator fixes the problem, but I like looking at it onscreen without bothering to press tab to check it out. I'd be happy if someone could help me. Thanks!

Use your console to change ENEMIES_LOCX to suit, using numbers between -1 and 1, where -1 is the left edge of the screen and 1 is the right edge.

Alternately, find and delete your user.cfg file. This will destroy your instant chats, keybinds, and so forth.

THe compromise is to find your user.cfg file and delete all occurences of LOCX. About 20 seconds worth of work, if you're willing to do it.

I'm sorry, I completely brainfarted the fact that old configurations had it in different values. I'm looking on the bright side, though, and thinking that this will at least bring to public notice the fact that the hud gauges can be moved. :)
