Hud

Based on game build 714014 | Last updated: 2026-03-05

Overview

The hud prefab is a lightweight asset loader that does not instantiate a gameplay entity. Instead, it serves as a container for declaring all assets (images, animations, sounds, etc.) and child prefabs required by the HUD system. It is referenced during game initialization to ensure all visual resources for the user interface—including health, hunger, sanity meters, compass, inventory effects, emotes, and event-specific HUDs—are preloaded and available at runtime.

Usage example

This prefab is not added to entities. It is used internally by the engine’s asset management system during startup.

-- Example of how this prefab is referenced during asset loading
Prefab("hud", fn, assets, prefabs)
-- This ensures all listed assets and sub-prefabs are loaded before UI initialization.
