Points for Current Hog?
Sat, 2015-04-04 18:03
Is there any way to easily tell how many points the current hog has? Points are not displayed about the active hog, and it can be useful to know this when deciding what plan of action to take.
Points? I assume you mean health/energy, but yes there is an easy way. If I recall correctly you can quickly press "H" twice to center view on the current hog (doing this should also make the health should show up).

Yes, I am referring to health/energy. Would there be any other way of implementing the ability to see health/energy for the current hog?
Well. could add a config pref to make it always display if hog healths are displayed, I guess. You might find it more annoying than useful.
If you wanted to try something like that yourself, you could tweak the source.
One thought is we could briefly show health if the hog's health goes up/down during a turn due to vampirism/karma/health crates.

At the bottom of the screen, the game shows energy for each hog in a team (the bar is broken up into pieces for each respective hog). How about highlighting the piece for the current hog in a lighter/darker colour? This would give an indication of how much energy the current hog has at any time, without being intrusive.
