Fish HP

Shows the health of living non-boss creatures damaged by the local player in a native-style stacked HUD on the left side of the screen.

Features

• Displays each target name, right-aligned synchronized current / maximum HP, and a native health bar.
• Keeps multiple living targets in separate non-overlapping rows; the most recently damaged target moves to the top.
• Supports a configurable bar color using Default, #RRGGBB, or #RRGGBBAA.
• Keeps living fish visible when a boss takes damage.
• Uses the game's native bar sprites, font, delayed white damage trail, movement spring, and rotation spring.
• Automatically disappears when the target dies, despawns, or the normal gameplay HUD is hidden.
• Hides while paused or while a game menu is open.
• Read-only: it does not change health, damage, combat, or network state.

Compatibility

• How to Fish 1.0.5
• BepInEx 5.4.23.5

Development disclosure

This project was developed with substantial assistance from OpenAI Codex. The packaged code was reviewed and compiled against the game before release.
