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 5.44

  • Orbiting (note: Trying to establish super low orbits (i.e. 7000m at Alioth) could result in achieving luminary status (burning up))
    • Alt-6 (Altitude Hold): If target altitude changed (alt-spacebar) to above the atmosphere will now establish orbit at that height.
    • Alt-6-6 while in space within a planet's influence: Will establish orbit at the height of activation in the direction you are facing.
    • Alt-4 (Autopilot) with a custom target over 0.5SU away on the same planet and set with target altitude above the atmosphere will now orbit to destination.
      (If you set height over atmosphere and your target is too close, normal climb and reentry will be used.)
    • Using the HUD button Engage Orbiting establishes orbit at height determined by your TargetOrbitRadius.
  • Glide Entry
    • When target is set to planet or not set, glide entry now glides in and holds altitude only.
    • When a custom target is selected, glide entry now lands your ship at your custom destination.
  • New user Variable: DisplayDeadZone, defaults true. If set to false, deadzone circle and line to cursor will not be drawn when in virtual joystick mode..
  • Bugfix
    • When using Alt-6 without a target selected (using Alt-1 or Alt-2) no longer gives an error.
