IntelligentAutoHideHUD

Description

Tired of a cluttered screen while you're just exploring Pharloom? This mod gives Silksong a dynamic, Elden Ring-style HUD: masks, silk spool, tool icons and the crest fade out of view while you're safely exploring, and snap back the instant it matters — an enemy gets close, you take a hit, or you spend a resource. No more permanently-on health/silk/tool clutter sitting over your beautiful screenshots and exploration, but never any risk of missing information in a fight.

Main Features

• Combat-driven visibility — the HUD appears the moment a living enemy is near (configurable proximity radius) or aggroed onto you, and during scripted arena/battle-gate encounters. Background/foreground decoration enemies (different depth plane) are correctly ignored so they don't false-trigger the HUD.
• Per-resource smart reveal — masks, silk, and tool ammo each reveal independently the instant they change (take damage → health pops up; spend silk → spool pops up)
• Low-resource lock — each element has its own "always show below X%" threshold, so you're never caught unaware when you're low.
