<div class="IPBDescription">Hilight button</div>Would it possible to have a button that hilights stuff. Like when you press F or something, you'll see
<ul><li>Player names over their heads with good contrast and big letters (its just so annoying to find one guy by name in ns1)</li><li>Health bars of nearby buildings and marines</li><li>Maybe icons showing up on players head if someone has a welder or mines</li><li>Suggest?</li></ul>

Think I've played a few RTS games with this sort of feature, never much used it but then most RTS games don't make you find tiny people running around in the dark who all look the same, so it may be useful.

It's used heavily in DotA games.

Might be helpful in NS. I was definitely a fan of the dynamic health bard, like when you switched to Gorge heal or welder.

As long as there is a cool sprite animation from the Marine's HUD perspective, which has like a 1 second delay.

Otherwise it becomes like the halos in L4D, breaks immersion and makes the game very easy. This is assuming the NS2 DEVs do not want to see everyone making their game look as close as possible to fy_iceworld.

Maybe this can be an upgradeon the Obs. that comes with Motion Tracking.
