Enemy HP
See the health of what you mark. When you mark an enemy with your ping key (the red marker with a name), Enemy HP shows its current and maximum health right under the marker.
One download, two label styles. Pick one in your mod manager (the drop-down on the mod / its edit button):
Health only (default), since the game's own mark already shows the name:
With names:
The label follows the enemy and updates live while you fight it.

- Follows the game's own marks: by default the label lasts as long as the mark (normal marks fade after 8 seconds, multi-marks stay until you cancel them or the enemy dies). When a marked enemy dies you briefly see "killed".
- New in 1.2 - your text size: 12 to 48 (default 18). Bigger text for 4K screens.
- New in 1.2 - your label duration: only while marked (default), 3 / 5 / 10 / 30 seconds after the mark ends, or until killed (the HP stays on your last marked enemy until it dies or you mark something else).
- Ping colours: red for enemies, white for vehicles, turrets and gear, yellow for objectives, orange for mines and explosive barrels. Mark your own FRV to see its health too.
- Only your marks: white location pings and your teammates' marks are ignored. Tested in multiplayer.
- Safe after game updates: the mod checks the game build when it starts. On an unsupported build it switches itself off and says so in its log instead of showing wrong numbers.
- Read-only and client-side: it only reads the game's ping list, health data and unit positions. It writes nothing to the game, sends nothing over the network and changes no gameplay values. Other players do not need it and are not affected.

- linger=0: seconds the label stays after the mark ends (0 = only while marked, -1 = until killed).
- offset=-40: label position in pixels relative to the marked point; negative moves it down, positive up.
