The aim of iHUD is to provide the immersive feel you get from having no HUD, whilst keeping the usefulness of having one. It takes the permanantly visible HUD elements such as compass and crosshair, and hides them when not needed. Hence the motto:
HUD when you need. HIDE when you don't.
What does it let you do?
1. Hides the HUD and lets you set the circumstances under which it re-apears.
2. Lets you set up situations where single HUD elements appear rather than the entire HUD.
3. Toggle the HUD with an in game item.
3. Toggle the compass with an in game item.
