How to Install

  1. Scroll down the the Assets and click on ButtonHUD.conf, this should trigger a download for this file.
  2. Save the file to %ProgramData%\Dual Universe\Game\data\lua\autoconf\custom (or equivalent directory if you did not do default install), the filename does not matter (as long as it's still .conf)
  3. In-game, right click your seat and go to Advanced -> Update custom autoconf list - If you get a YAML error, you did not follow the above directions correctly.
  4. Again, right click your seat and select Advanced -> Run Custom Autoconfigure -> ButtonsHud - Dimencia and Archaegeo
  5. IMPORTANT: Right click the ship and set the user control scheme to Keyboard (Advanced -> Change Control Scheme -> Keyboard). This is necessary for the HUD to work, but you can change the actual control scheme in the next step - fear not virtual joystick aces!
  6. Right click the seat, choose Advanced -> Edit LUA Parameters. Change the userControlScheme to the actual control scheme you wish to use (e.g. Virtual Joystick). You may mouse over the other parameters and set them as you wish - there are many, you should familiarize yourself with them. You may also change control scheme using a Button while seated.
  7. If you have a Databank installed on your vehicle your parameters will save when you stand up. Saved parameters will be restored any time you upgrade the HUD to a new version. See Saving in the Readme for more information

At this point you should be ready to fly!

Latest Changes

Version 4.83

  • Autopilot to another planet now works starting from ground.
  • Autopilot to saved location on another planet now works starting ground or space.
    For both cases: Pick target like normal, hit autopilot (button or alt-4).
    Ship will tilt up at preset max angle (30 by default) and fly to 100km then engage autopilot to selected planet.
    Once it arrives it will establish orbit and align prograde. If saved location chosen, it will glide entry in and
    then autopilot to location. NOTE: It does not check to see if anything is in front of you on ground (like normal) nor
    if your target planet is behind current planet even 100km in space. DO NOT USE if your ship cannot power out of
    atmosphere at 30 deg with 100% engines. USE WITH CAUTION FIRST TIME.
    Tested Alioth to Sanct and Sanct to Alioth repeatedly.
  • Added check to help prevent autopilot to saved location in atmosphere causing stall if facing too many degrees out at start.
  • Added Stall Warning if your alignment drops below StallAngle (35 by default) - EVERY SHIP WILL BE DIFFERENT
  • Changed end of Autopilot to turn on Align to Prograde by default.
  • Credit for heading code to tomisunlucky
  • Change vSpd calculation, same results.
  • Removed 5 second delay on activation of Emergency Warp. If you turn it on, you want it to activate when any of the conditions are met.
  • Changed tilt on Follow Mode to 20 deg to allow better following. Note: Very light or single hover ships cannot utilize Follow Mode.
  • Changed default max pitch to 30 (most ships will handle this fine, change if needed, recommend not less than 20)
  • Added user variable StallAngle = 35 --export: Determines how much Autopilot is allowed to make you yaw/pitch in atmosphere. Also gives a stall warning. (default 35, higher = more tolerance for yaw/pitch/roll)
    Lower this value (or raise it) based on how well your ship handles yaw/roll/pitch without stalling.
  • Changed default Orbit Height to 50km (from 100km)
