Option for Enabling Health Reminders

Paddy

Having the ability to toggle intermittent notifications (potentially with a user set time between them) that remind players to drink water, stretch, take a break, etc. would be really nice to have. Players will often disregard their health while playing games and forget to stay hydrated, or will play through pain caused by repetitive strain injuries. Notifications that pop up in an unintrisive way (when the player is not moving, or not in a run) could help reduce the severity of these issues.

Looks like feature-creep to me, and unnecessary extra-work for the devs. An external program could do this. A external program with this purpose also means you could benefit from it in any game, rather than just in MomentumMod.

tam It's a feature suggestion, which is a large part of the purpose of the forums in the first place. The momentum team is not bound into putting any suggested feature in the game, but if there is enough interest by the community as a whole or an individual team member it could be added. There is also the potential of a contributor adding it to a release in the public repo, although for this specifically could be difficult due to the shift from vgui to panorama. As to it being used in any game, movement games in particular can contribute to RSI. If my suggestion even prompts more health related tips on map loads (a feature already in the game) I would be happy with the outcome.
