2.0.0

HUD settings

The party HUD is now fully customisable per player. All settings are stored on the client in config/partylink-client.json and are the same on every server. See HUD Settings.

• New HUD settings screen with four tabs and a live preview: open it with HUD & Design... in the party settings or with the new key Open HUD Settings (unbound by default), also without a party.
• Design: three styles (Futuristic, Classic, Minimal), eight preset colors or any RGB color, background opacity, animations on/off, text shadow, member colors on/off.
• Display: detailed or new compact layout; header, player heads, yourself, offline members, level, HP text, HP bar, XP text, XP bar, distance and add-on lines can each be turned on or off; sorting by party order, name, distance or health; max. rows with a "+N more" line; hide the HUD while you are alone.
• Size & position: scale 50–200 %, width 140–320, auto scale for small windows, nine screen anchors.
• HUD editor: drag the HUD with the mouse, it snaps to the nearest anchor; the mouse wheel changes the scale.
• Pings & world: marker size, ping labels on/off, ping sound volume, glow.
• Existing 1.x HUD settings (visibility, heads, size, color, position, glow, ping sound) are taken over automatically.
• The party settings screen is shorter and grows with the member list, so large parties no longer overlap the buttons.

API (version 3)

• Client: setHudSuppressed, isHudSuppressed, isHudEnabled, getHudBounds (PartyHudBounds) and getHudAccentColor. See Client API.
• Fully backwards compatible with API versions 1 and 2.

Fixes

• Shared XP now counts merged XP orbs correctly; before, merged orbs could lose XP or be shared twice.
• P opens the PartyLink settings instead of vanilla's Social Interactions on PartyLink servers.
• When the owner leaves, a manager is preferred as the new owner.
• Network channels are versioned, so different PartyLink versions on client and server no longer misread each other's packets.
