Question to ya'll expert hudmakers and the such.

I wanted to know if there is any option or possible variable so you are able to see scoreboard information without having to open it.

I would like to, if possible, edit my hud so you could see some information, like who is alive or how many people alive on my team/other team, without having to have a look at the scoreboard and add it. Anyone has any idea if you can retrieve that info without opening scoreboard?

Can I use the scoreboard variables out of scoreboard.res?

pls no 'open scoreboard u lazy'

Auto answering question, unfortunately no. Might as well email the TF team and see if they can waste a little time making it available.

It's been tried many times already, and it's impossible.

The variables that scoreboard.res uses are unique. So it's impossible to use them outside their own file.

constantly having the scoreboard open with "+showscores" (in a modified minimal version) also wouldnt work since opening the scoreboard hides a lot of the important elements of the hud, including health/ammo etc., so that won't be viable unfortunately

I personally experimented with putting scoreboard meters on the actual in-game hud without opening the scoreboard, like having a headshot meter for sniper and an assist meter for medic. I'm pretty sure that it isn't possible though
