hitman_uiLib

hitman_uiLib (HUL) is a developer-oriented UI library addon for Arma Reforger. It provides a passive, event-driven split panel in the style of the Call of Duty feedback/feed display: a cumulative data area on the left and an animated entry queue that scrolls on the right. The library ships NO gameplay content — no kills, scores, money, or any domain logic. Everything is defined by the integrating mod through subclass overrides: - HUL_FeedbackEntry — entry = event. Carries display text plus a map<string,string> payload; override ProcessDict() to define the per-entry data contract (called exactly once per entry). - HUL_FeedbackUI — override OnLeftEntryProcessed() / OnLeftReset() / OnPanelBuilt() to build and update the left cumulative area. Integration takes three steps: declare the addon dependency, attach HUL_FeedbackHostComponent to any session-loaded entity (it drives the 33 ms tick and registers the /hul command), then call HUL_FeedbackUI.AddEntry(...) wherever your event occurs. Panel behaviour - Right-hand queue: new entries enter from the bottom, the queue scrolls upward, and the top row animates out. - Visible window: 6 rows by default; the queue may exceed it and refills from the bottom. - Pacing state machine: active scrolling at 4+ queued entries (0.6 s per row; drops to 0.18 s while the queue is over the visible limit), stall while 1–3 remain, and a full-panel fade-out after 4 s idle (which also clears the left cumulative area). A new entry cancels the fade immediately. Highly configurable - All layout, pacing and colour values live in HUL_FeedbackParams and are readable/writable at runtime — changes apply immediately without reloading the scenario: panel position/size, left-column ratio, row height and gap, visible row count, active/overflow/idle timings, scroll and fade durations, and text colours. - The same values can be tuned live in-game through the /hul chat command (/hul x 0.5, /hul row+, /hul reset, ...), with a read...
