HUD Elements

• Crosshair/Reticle:
  • The central marker used for targeting objects for interaction.
  • Multiple crosshair variations can be selected in the Controls Settings menu.

• Interaction Prompts:
  • Text prompts (e.g., "Press F To Sit") appear near the crosshair when looking at an interactive object.
  • These indicate the key to press (Default: F) and the action that will occur. See Tutorial:Interaction Basics for more on interaction.

• Notifications & Information:
  • The HUD displays contextual messages.
  • Known examples include tutorial instructions and hints (Tutorials), mission timers, and game version/status information (like "Tech Demo 3" shown during development).

Customization

The Crosshair element of the HUD is customisable via the game's settings menu.
