Yeah, you could create something similar to how A_OverlayFlags (and et al.) pairs with A_Overlay.

So the new function can be a color setup of some sort for [b]DrawImage[/b] that is separated like the above.

Good luck on the endeavor — I will enjoy this for sure. :mrgreen:

Doesn't look like it'll be too difficult to work with so I'll try coming up with something.

I second this, the latter sounds more plausible since there can be more room for flexibility in color(s). I had (and still have) some issues in my own situation when it comes to tinkering around with the colors for [b]DrawImage[/b]..

DrawImage just needs to have its color settings exposed, or another function made I think...

"This should help modders who want to match the crosshair color to the weapon color theme.
Example: D4D's BFG is green. The crosshair would match well if it was green, too. Being able to set the color directly through DECORATE/ACS would be a nice feature to have."

Is/will this (be) possible with ZScript?

Crosshair reflects player health, of course.

How would this play with the "crosshair reflects player health" option, out of curiosity? Which gets priority?

Sounds reasonable (and useful, of course) to me!

What comes to mind most readily:[list][*]Make the crosshairs for your mod match the scheme of your HUD.
[*]Through proper application of linetarget checking, you could change the color based on what you're aiming at. (Allies, enemies, objects of interest, etc.)
[*]If you felt like giving your mod insane levels of customizability, you could also set up custom cvars for UT2-style per-weapon crosshair selection.[/list]

This should help modders who want to match the crosshair color to the weapon color theme.
Example: D4D's BFG is green. The crosshair would match well if it was green, too. Being able to set the color directly through DECORATE/ACS would be a nice feature to have.

The only issue I stumbled across when I thought of the idea was: "What if somebody wanted to force a specific color?"
I reckon the answer to that would be a Force Crosshair Color on/off switch in the HUD menu.

Is something like this doable?
