About
When you pick up an ammo box, this mod displays a small HUD element popup showing how much ammo you received from the box, which disappears after a short amount of time (in a style similar to Half-Life).
The mod has a fair amount of customization, but you must edit an .ini file to change the default options- sorry, I didn't have the energy to make an in-game menu this time. See the section below for instructions.
At any rate, the mod is usable with the default settings.
This should work with custom HUD mods.
Not tested with overhaul mods.
I'll record a demo video later.
Customization
To change the mod's setttings, you can edit the file at mods/saves/ammo_pickup_in_hud.ini, using the text editor of your choice. (I recommend Notepad++)
This file is only generated after the game is launched with the mod installed, and settings are only applied on game start/restart or heist start/restart.
Customization options include, but are not limited to the following:
- You can customize the position, color, font size (this also changes the icon size), and opacity.
- You can change whether or not ammo pickup amounts are "batched" together, as well as the threshold timer.
- You can change whether or not to show ammo pickups that yielded 0 ammo (such as when using a weapon with very low ammo pickup, such as a grenade launcher)
- You can choose whether or not to display the weapon icon next to the amount of ammo picked up.
See hooks/menumanager.lua for a complete list of setting descriptions.

The new underbarrel flamethrower displays as a error texture.
Edit- It appears all underbarrels now show an error.
would be cool if it displayed what type of ammo. ie: little friend rifle for when you obtain basic bullets, and then the little friend rifle with an underbarrel grenade icon next to it when obtaining grenades. mainly suggesting this regarding the mdrx.
Could you make the customization options changeable in the mod options pannel ingame instead of going into the mod saves folder? would make it much more convenient for people like me who have absolutely destroyed this game with mods.

你好作者，0.9.2版本的MOD似乎依然没能解决"更多武器统计数据”的问题，在使用本MOD后，更多武器统计数据MOD在菜单中依然无法显示相关数据，以上反馈问题，希望得到解决
this mod apparently breaks "more weapon stats", with it installed none of the adtional statistics shown by that mod would display.
could this get a fix?
For some reason, More Weapon Stats was simulating weapon pickups while in the menu, which was causing errors with this mod. This should be fixed now- thanks for the report!
there's a small bug about weapons with under barrel shot modes
let's say you shoot your little friend's bullets and under barrel grenade launcher, when you get a ammo drop only one popup for that weapon will show instead of how many bullets you got for common shot and how many grenades you got for launcher at the same time
Sorry, that's a known issue, forgot to write it in the description. I'll have to fix it later
good work as always offy, been wanting a standalone version of this since hoppips warframe hud came out lol
Looks like changing the size of the font isn't changing the icon and the amount of ammo picked up, it's always the same (I was trying to make it smaller than default). A side of that is pretty cool how the mod works!
Thanks for catching that! Looks like I forgot to hook up those two settings to the actual HUD creation, I'll upload the fix in the next update.
