Release v4.925

How to Install

1. Scroll down the the Assets and click on ButtonHUD.conf, this should trigger a download for this file.
2. Save the file to %ProgramData%\Dual Universe\Game\data\lua\autoconf\custom (or equivalent directory if you did not do default install), the filename does not matter (as long as it's still .conf)
3. In-game, right click your seat and go to Advanced -> Update custom autoconf list - If you get a YAML error, you did not follow the above directions correctly.
4. Again, right click your seat and select Advanced -> Run Custom Autoconfigure -> ButtonsHud - Dimencia and Archaegeo
5. IMPORTANT: Right click the ship and set the user control scheme to Keyboard (Advanced -> Change Control Scheme -> Keyboard). This is necessary for the HUD to work, but you can change the actual control scheme in the next step - fear not virtual joystick aces!
6. Right click the seat, choose Advanced -> Edit LUA Parameters. Change the userControlScheme to the actual control scheme you wish to use (e.g. Virtual Joystick). You may mouse over the other parameters and set them as you wish - there are many, you should familiarize yourself with them. You may also change control scheme using a Button while seated.
7. If you have a Databank installed on your vehicle your parameters will save when you stand up. Saved parameters will be restored any time you upgrade the HUD to a new version. See Saving in the Readme for more information

At this point you should be ready to fly!

Latest Changes

Version 4.925 - Increased FPS when using full HUD

• Changed overlay (hud) to update at 1/4 the speed of autopilot. This also moves hud stuff out of ap area. Gained 10 FPS with little visible impact.
• Added user variable hudTickRate for those who want to fine tune it, default is 4 times slower than ap tick rate (15 times/sec vice 60 times/sec)
  hudTickRate = 0.0666667 -- export: (Default: 0.0666667) Set the tick rate for your HUD. Default is 4 times slower than apTickRate. hudTickRate should be >= apTickRate.
  The hudTickRate has the biggest impact on FPS as it determines how often the overlay is redrawn(updated). 0.25 gives a 20+ fps gain, but you get 4 fps hud update.

Version 4.924

• Fixed time display for Days - Hours
• Added default values to all user variables (Default: value)
• Added SpaceSpeedLimit user parameter - When you hit the limit, and are not in autopilot mode, engines will turn off. Default is 30000 (so will never apply)

Version 4.922 - Now with space! (Space waypoints and autopiloting to them)
WARNING WARNING WARNING - Autopiloting to a point in space that has a physical object at it might end up
with you smeared all over it. The AP endeavors to stop you in time. Recommend setting a waypoint nearby or
wear a diaper AND brown pants buttercup.

• Autopilot will now go to a saved location in space. If on arrival you are too far off, you can Alt-4 again and
  it will close in.
• Added Space as a entry in the Atlas to allow for saving locations in space.
• /addlocation now supports space waypoints.
  Save Locations:
  To make locations on planets, use either the Save Button or /addlocation Name Waypoint command
  To make locations in space, use only the /addlocation Name Waypoint command
  To rename a location, select it in the Interplanetary window, then use the /setname Name command
  To delete a location, select it in the interplanetary window, then click the Clear button
  Do not use Update button for space locations at this time.
  KNOWN ISSUES:
• Autopilot from land to space save point may arrive off when first stops, just hit alt-4 again and it will zero in (works best starting in space)
• Autopilot from space to land point SOMETIMES has issues when ready for re-entry, troubleshooting that. If happens alt-4 to cancel, brake, alt-4 to go on in.

Version 4.920 - Support for user input

• Implemented user text input. To use, hit tab and hit enter to send messages to Lua Chat. (this will not cause tab fps slideshow if the chat tab is open first) Currently supported commands:
  • /commands - Shows command list and help
  • /setname name - renames the current selected saved postion to "name"
  • /G variablename value - changes the global variablename to new value, example /G AtmoSpeedLimit 1300 would set that user variable to 1300 or /G circleRad 100 would shrink the artifical horizon
  • /agg height - Sets the AGG target height to height. Note that it must still move to this height at 4m/s like normal.
  • /addlocation savename waypointpaste - Adds a new saved location based on waypoint. Not as accurate as going to location and using Save button.
• Added three new user variables for engine control (NOTE: if you fill these in, only engines on that axis that have the extra tags will fire):
  • ExtraLongitudeTags = "none" -- export: Enter any extra longitudinal tags you use inside "" seperated by space, i.e. "forward faster major" These will be added to the engines that are control by longitude.
  • ExtraLateralTags = "none" -- export: Enter any extra lateral tags you use inside "" seperated by space, i.e. "left right" These will be added to the engines that are control by lateral.
  • ExtraVerticalTags = "none" -- export: Enter any extra longitudinal tags you use inside "" seperated by space, i.e. "up down" These will be added to the engines that are control by vertical.
• Fixed buttons not working in remote mode.
