#FucktheHUD

RP Rank: (Fleet) Admiral

Suggestion: Add a button to the C(ontext) menu that allows players to remove as many things possible from the HUD. 

Why?:
This would allow staff and players during events to take better screenshots in game. Having the Compass in the top and the giant square in the bottom left just takes away from the screenshots. For importantly, GMs can record stuff cinematically on both servers. This would be an amazing especially for event server deployments, players can be more immersed themselves and GMs can record things for large projects. Especially now that the content pack no longer exists and the Fast DL can mess up your singleplayer content, recording cinematic things is a far bigger hassle then it was before. Being able to record stuff actively as players run around in an event could also lead to outstanding promotional content in the future and if published, could be used to make better looking cinematic shots. Yes we can already do these things, but the HUD just makes any recording look clunky / unprofessional. 

Implementation: developers doing coding

Lore: HUD

Workshop content if applicable: Requires Development

+1 this the type of suggestion I’d throw up when I’m desperate for rep

Compass can be toggled with mcompass_enabled 0/1 or from options in Q menu (these can let you reposition/resize it too). Regarding the rest of the HUD and chatbox, I do not know of any commands that work with them. 

So +1, it would be great to have a feature like this for both immersion and for images.

This would definitely would help with recording events from above or some different angles, especially if someone wants to know what happened during the event due to them not being there.

We've done the best that we currently can with the HUD in hiding features with the "Hide HUD" button located in the Tab menu under settings.
