📋 About This Mod
Companion Status
Your companions' health and AP on your HUD.
★ THE STORY ★
You finish a tough fight. Phew. It's quiet. Too quiet. You turn and see your companion grovelling about on the floor. Thanks for nothing, Piper - you mutter for the fifteen-thousandth time this week.
In vanilla, there's absolutely no way to know how much health your companion has left. Their HP bar doesn't show when you point at them, and they're not selectable in VATS either. You have no idea if your companion is just fine or right about to go down face flat on the very next hit.
★ THE DETAILS ★
This mod adds a HUD widget that displays your companions' health and stats. Up to ten companions can be monitored.
Stats will be displayed when companions enter combat, and will automatically fade out once your companion is at full health and out of combat.
You can now have an improved situational awareness of your team's fighting strength. If they're low on health, call them back or reposition them. Provide support where needed. Know the status and fighting strength of your team at all times.
★ REQUIREMENTS ★
This mod requires HUDFramework.
★ COMPATIBILITY ★
Automatically compatible with all follower systems, vanilla or mod-added, present or future.
All that's required is for followers to have the Treat as Player Follower flag correctly set on their AI packages. This is set by default on the FollowPlayer package template, so a mod would have to be doing things in a very different way indeed in order to not have it set.
Fully compatible with:
-
[]Vanilla follower system
[
]Temporary quest followers[]Everybody's Best Friend
[]Unlimited Companion Framework
