Custom HUD problems when playing at lower resolutions.
I've been having lots of fun with a new kill counter which displays kills on the HUD. The script was made by The Fish with support from Rectus.

When you change resolution problems start to emerge. Using the setting 1680x1050 it becomes perfect, well it should be placed a little bit more to the left on the screen but it seems it can't go more to the left. And with lower values such as 720x480 and 640x480 it just looks broken, it cuts off some of the text. Is there a way to fix this?

1680x1050:

And also the size of the text becomes too big at lower resolutions.

I thought they were going to patch this but never happened. I tried replacing the scripted hud res file a long while back with resizable text elements but never could het it to work.

What I did now was that I changed the maximum amount of characters that is displayed for each name to 10 characters so names don't take up too much space on screen and overlap with the survival timer that much on lower resolutions.
There are two chat commands (enable/disable commands) however when someone disables the custom HUD it will disable it for everyone and not just for the player who wrote the command in the chat.
Haven't tested this on a Dedicated Server yet but on my Local Server it worked fine for all the people who helped me test it. I guess this is as good as it gets, very excited to release this as it makes survival mode more interesting to play.
