Posted Jul 17, 2013@Teralkin No to customizable hud name, assuming you mean the gray ArmorHUD text. I want it to be recognizable as ArmorHUD at all times.
Blocking ArmorHUD from working on certain worlds would be doable, so maybe.

Posted Jul 17, 2013Can you make it so you can customize the Hud Name and colors? Also only work on certain worlds perhaps?

Posted Jul 16, 2013I found a bug in the plugin where if you were on fire or in lava the scoreboard will blink rapidly and this i believe could cause extra lag, such a memory leak.

Ah alright i understand the unbreaking. For the tools could it be the item you are currently holding in your hand and if it doesn't display right away all you gotta do is hit with it once or something.

Posted Jul 15, 2013@TommehRRR Go find your own project to work on xD
I will release the source code if I ever abandon the project.
@deaddude22 Yeah the armor pieces also bounce around. I think that's less of an issue because they're all armor. Would be kinda weird to have a sword or tool randomly floating around in there.
If it's really a wanted feature by more people I'll consider adding it as an option though. Could you explain to me exactly which sword/tool should be displayed? Would it be the item held in the most left slot of the hotbar? Would it auto-detect any sword anywhere in the hotbar?
EDIT: Oh and yes the plugin supports armor with unbreaking. There's no real difference. The armor points of a piece of armor with and without unbreaking are exactly the same. Only the piece with unbreaking has a certain chance of not lowering in durability after taking a hit.

True the values are shown on the sword automatically in your inventory but it would still be nice to know the exact # of hits you can take before it goes away. Also wouldn't the armor bounce around too due to value as you said it would with weapon/tool durability?
Does this plugin also support unbreaking armor though because it doesn't appear to do so.

As I already said to Finelarme2, what's the point of displaying tool/weapon durability in the ArmorHUD when your tool/weapon already has a bar directly beneath it displaying the durability?
Also keep in mind that if I added it, it wouldn't stay in a fixed position in the HUD. It would auto-sort on the values and mingle in between the armor durability o_O.
@Finelarme2 I tracked down that issue and it will be resolved in the next update.

Would it be possible to display the durability of the current tool/weapon you are holding?

Posted Jul 12, 2013@Finelarme2Hi, thanks for your reply.
Both your (hero's?) health and weapon's durability are displayed prominently on your screen already. I see no reason to clog up the ArmorHUD display with that info?

Posted Jul 12, 2013Hi, thanks for your plugin.
Could we have a weapon health indicator maybe ?
And the health of our hero too ?

Posted Jul 11, 2013First of all ArmorHUD does not support plugins using the same scoreboard sidebar slot. Doing /armorhud on again should make the hud reappear. Opening and closing the inventory might trigger the hud to reappear as well.
If you're using compatibility-mode it might cause a client crash though. What it comes down to is that I can't work together with other plugins messing in the same sidebar slot.
