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.
