Re: [TF2] Cart ETA
 

You know what, I'm actually setting up a video capture environment, so I can provide videos .. which display way more than just a single screenshot!

I'm also going to tweak the plugin today, so you can expect a new release later on.

[Edit]
Video added, see first post!
New version uploaded.

Re: [TF2] Cart ETA
 

You're welcome!

That is unlikely, are there any other HUD messages on your screen? A maximum of 6 messages can be displayed at once.

I just tested it, and I can't reproduce your issue.

Kind regards,

Re: [TF2] Cart ETA
 

1. Doesn't handle multiple train watchers
2. Hooks the start event every map change without removing the old hook, so fires the handler more and more each map change.
3. Doesn't reset previousProgress correctly, so if it switches to another payload map, the speed will be negative the whole round, resulting in no info.
4. Really odd an possibly a glitch in my hacking up of the plugin to debug it, but the hud text may not be appearing for people with wide screen monitors.
5. Something's wrong with the control of the timer, as I got errors from CloseHandler for operating on bad timer handles.

Working on fixes for this right now, but I wanted to point out what's currently going wrong.

Re: [TF2] Cart ETA
 

This is intentional, or are there maps OTHER than payloadrace with multiple train watchers?

That's almost impossible, if they can see the normal HUD, they should see the message, because the position is relative. I'm using 2 wide screen monitors myself.

I'll work on it today! :D
