== What's HUD ==

A full description of HUD can be found under [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head-Up_Display WikiPedia].[[br]]

== HUD with Ogre == 

Ogre has its own class for HUD designing: CLASS OVERLAY. [[br]]
There are two ways to write an overlay, neither it can be written in a script, or it can be dynamically created in C++ file. 
All possibilities and variabilities for an overlay script are found unter [http://www.ogre3d.org/docs/manual/manual_38.html#SEC217 Ogre Tutorial].
For Windows Users there is already an editor made by Patrick Kooman: [http://www.ogre3d.org/wiki/index.php/Overlay_Editor Overlay Editor]

== Already Done ==

See Printscreen: Version 2.0

== TODO ==

 * To make HUD cuter, easier to use. 
 * To realize Radar System.

== Proposals ==
 * use SVG for drwaing - saves space, and is resolution indendant; drawback need to be implemented in OGRE/framework [[br]]
 * more suitable font.[[br]]
 * improve radar: removed grid, add distance rings[[br]]
