Life Line: A Life System

This is a life system script that allows you to lose all your health a certain number of times before death. Pretty much how it works is you specify how many lives you want and it displays them on screen. When you lose all your health it restores it to a given value and takes a life while playing a warning sound. After a given amount of seconds(if enabled), lives will regenerate and play another sound. Simple. All these things are customizable through the options menu under “Life Line Options.”

Pictured above are some different orientations and positions. Just some ideas. The video shows the general workings of the mod. The lives are in the top right corner. Pay attention to my health and the symbols. I have the regen time set to 15 seconds and the fade time set to 90%.

• This was ghetto coded together in a few days. It’s not perfect but should work pretty well. Fill free to list bugs if any.
  
• THIS DOES NOT WORK ONLINE! ONLY IN SINGLE PLAYER! Eventually when I'm done with this I might create a new version for servers. Not likely to be soon unless requested a lot, since I don't play online. Contact me if you wish to do that work for me.
  
• The scale option should be fixed and I added an option to control the fade speed.
  
• Do yourself a favor and import your own custom life symbol if you're not using BF4 HUD. Also since the other ones I inlcuded kinda suck.
  
• I will update this if I find mistakes or make any improvements.
  
• If you change the orientation and the HUD moves off screen just mess with your offsets.
  
• The number of lives can affect the alignment. 5 lives and 2 lives with center orientation require different offsets to get them center.
  
• If you change the number of lives to a lower number mid game, they will not regenerate past that number.
  
• If you change the regen time, it won't apply until the next life is lost or gained.
  
• I’ll take suggestions on features for this mod. So if you have any ideas let me know.
