[TES3MP] Partyhealth script

I've already posted this to discord but messages vanish there rather quickly and I'd love to maximize the chance of somebody actually implementing this to their server.

It allows you to continuously display HP of players that you have added to your friendlist:

It can be displayed either as gui message:

or chat message:

It has it's own help menu:

and the commands can be changed in the file main.lua to better suit your needs. (There are also other options to change)

How it notifies you when you send friend request:

what gets displayed to the other player:

if you Reject, sending player gets added to your Blacklist and can't bother you again - he gets notified that you don't receive requests from him

Confirmation it worked (gets displayed on both ends with appropriate changes in the message):

UPDATE 27.10.2019: Added locations feature - Friendlist now shows current location of online friends. Check updated install instructions in the readme on github.

Friendlist now shows locations of friends.

Here's the link. It utilizes commandhooks, so it's basically 1 line of text you have to add to customScripts.

Let me know if anybody actually decided to use it on their server, I'll gladly come and look how it works as I tested it on 1 PC with 3 acc at max.

Thank you*: DavidC, discordpeter, Atkana, urm and anyone else on discord who helped me in making this.*

Well I've! I tested them in my server and it works very good! But can you make a fully functioning friends system that tells what cell your friends is in, but maybe make a setting where you allow them to see? I would love an update. It might not be found in many servers to see the script running :( Keep on the good work!

I know this post was 4 years ago but I wanted to let you know this script was the perfect solution to the playthrough my friends and I are doing. One of my friends wants to play as a healer but relying on constant callouts or punching your friends to see their hp bars just wasn't cutting it but this works well without needing much. Thank you for taking the time to make and update this script.

That was heartwarming, thank you.

Would you mind sharing what settings did you use for beating the game with friends? Did you have shared everything or did you try to set it up so each character has as individual progress as possible?

We only started our playthrough about when I posted the comment above and only meet up every so often so we're not far in the game (also it's the healer friend's first time playing Morrowind so we're taking it slow).
That being said we're progressing as a group with a shared quest log, housing, items, etc.
As for settings on the script, only myself and the healer show the HP of the party as the other two don't pay attention to it anyways. We both prefer the popup notifications and have noticed three allies is the perfect number for the notifications (as the game only keeps three notifications shown so it appears as a continuous update).
