Is it possible to add this to the UI? (I think it is)
(http://i.imgur.com/Gjpqj58.jpg)
The yellow bar above the armour, is the president's health. This will be useful for terros/civs who are hunting the president.
The blue bar under the money is the time left (so that there will be no message that will appear in the middle of the screen "x minutes remaining")
I am thinking of adding some more but I guess that's too many to display in the UI

That message is so annoying, at times. So +1 to your suggestion.
-
Very nice. I like it.
-
Yep, its possible.
Btw +1

Would be cool to have more information on the user interface but for these, you can also just use /intel and /track [id]
-
I don't like the president health bar meter, it's just going to add more advantage to terrors while they are already overpowered (presidents need a buff in my opinion not a nerf).
The time remaining bar is alright but there is no need to remove the blue announcement on screen because it has always been a classical part of the gamemode.

That's why I'm suggesting this one to prevent terros from typing that one

I agree,-1 to the suggestion.

The health bar's purpose is just for viewing. As what I have said, it will be like the /track (id) of the presi, but shown in a bar to make it convenient

-1 For president's health. I like not knowing what the presidents health it, makes it more challenging and fun.
+1 For time left. That would actually be useful but on a different part of the screen.

If we add a timer it will be better

It doesn't change the fact that sometimes it can be annoying af lol
-
Perhaps there is a way to put that announcement in the top middle of the screen, that way it wouldn't be annoying as much as it can be now (and it would still be visible)

Well, generally your idea is interesting, but don't forget that UI is not standartized here, everybody uses various mods etc etc. So there would be a lot of conflicts between server-side and client-side UIs.
Besides, as for me, user interface should be as minimalistic as possible, no need to overload it ("keep it simple, silly!"). You can gather all of the information needed with /intel and /track [president's ID].
Of course, it can be made toggleable, but I still think it isn't worth time spent for scripting. Newbies will be even more confused with those new bars, so additional explanations should be also put, which would overcomplicate it even more.
So, -1 for now. Although, again, the idea is interesting.
-
I like both of your suggestions.

I don't think this will be added, at least not in this form. Bars like that aren't easy to script, and won't look that good most of the time. Also, I don't think it's a good idea to show the presidents health all the time, so people know his status at all times and can take advantage of it. As for the time left, I also don't think there's that much need for it, and that the announcements are enough for now.
