Can we PLEASE, for the love of Mrs. Foster, get a keybind to toggle Friendly HUD HP/Armor ON/OFF

PLEASE add a keybind toggle for the "Friendly HUD" HP/Armor bars: Press the button, they go away -- press the button again, they come back. Rinse, repeat.

The HUD is right in line-of-sight for headshots, which is simply poor design. Would the military design it that way? Would Horzine Research say, "Hey, let's put something in the HUD that block player's vision" ?

Yes, I know there's a slider for the Friendly HUD. I slide it as far left as I can. Yes, I know you can disable the HUD, which is silly to suggest.

I'm that guy everybody loves, who will collect fallen teammates' weapons, and bring the weapons to the Trader. BUT, have to go into the slider to expand the names, to give the weapons back to the correct teammate; then go back to the slider and move it left again. It's annoying to jump through the hoops to be a good buddy.

Sure, I can drop the gun at Trader, and hope nobody steals it. We all know how well that works.

So 2 things: "Friendly HUD" toggle keybind, and while you're at it, a keybind for "THANK YOU" would be nice. Teammates saying "AFFIRMATIVE" for being healed is ridiculous when there is a THANK YOU in-game. Yes, I made a custom bind for "PlayVoiceCommsDialog 9", but other people aren't so clever. Yes, I know there's the silly chat menu, which skilled players don't use.


Thank you for the consideration, have a great week!

I have to admit, when I first started playing KF2 and just joined a pub game in an early round, a player dropped a gun near the trader. I thanked him and picked it up thinking it was for me to have enough dosh to buy a weapon. I think a sticky posting about people dropping weapons should be in the forums here and on reddit. Now, I know that it's someone who was kind enough to carry a weapon for a fallen player, or somebody buying a spare for a long round.

On the HUD I think that's a great idea, especially for medics.

Also please let us either move or remove the wave starting logo that appears right in your vision at the start of each wave. Not only is it annoying, it could be dangerous when zeds spawn quickly

Wow, you so mean for selling the guy's weapon!
