Nice work, a couple details tough:
  • I think it should be possible to close the firemodes menu clicking the fire button or right clicking the menu itself or something, right now I can only close it by clicking in another button - like reaction fire one - which isn't very intuitive, and a little annoying when all I want is choosing the reaction fire mode.
  • Since I'm translating to Spanish I couldn't help notice that the HUD name (minimal HUD) isn't up for translation

DarkRain, thanx 4 your comments :)

1. This is still WIP and behaving the same way like the altHUD does (because it is derived from that HUD), but there are plans to improve this behaviour
2. :o I do not know how to fix that :'(

Looking forward your new improvements

Also I think you are only missing an underscore to make the name translatable

from hud_alt.ufo:
Code: [Select]
         func onScriptLoaded {
                 // Register the window to the HUD list
                 cmd "add_hud_name <path:root> \"_Alternative HUD\""
         }

form hud_mini.ufo:
Code: [Select]
         func onScriptLoaded {
                 // Register the window to the HUD list
                 cmd "add_hud_name <path:root> \"Minimal HUD\""
         }
You are missing an underscore here               ^^

Which make me think, the translatable string is IMO unparsable by the pot generator... i can be wrong

Nothing like a civil war to spice things up.
