A/AN - Lesson on Articles
WHEN TO USE -A-
Use a if the next word begins with a consonant SOUND.
This is a sound rule, NOT a spelling rule.
a box
a cat
a university (university begins with a consonant sound)
a unicorn (unicorn begins with a consonant sound)
a European trip (European begins with a consonant sound)
a hotel (hotel begins with a consonant sound)
WHEN TO USE -AN-
Use AN if the next word begins with a vowel SOUND.
This is a sound rule, NOT a spelling rule.
an atom
an entrance
an ice cream cone
an uncle (uncle begins with a vowel sound)
an hour (the h is silent, thus a vowel sound)

I was literally going to post the exact same thing.
The acronym HUD starts with H(pronounced Aich), which is a consonant sound.

As for the topic, I'm not sure what you're requesting an HUD for.

He told me he was making an iPhone server. Apparently his LAT made the island in less than ten minutes and is getting ready to send the levels to iTunes who will then make it into an iPhone app. :asleep:


Oh and I've always pronounced it "HUD" not "aych u d"

Normally I expand abbreviations as I come to them in text.
So I don't say hud, or aych you dee, I say heads up display.
In which case it's still an 'a' and not an 'an'.

id suggest using gui controls if you don't. Have images and if you do then i'd use a guicontrol as container and then overlay other invisible gui controls over top of it if you want any kind of interaction. Never really been a fan of the showimg approach but that's just a personal preference. I

salesman 02-25-2011 05:56 PM

I say HUD, too, or usually expand abbreviations out as Demisis said. My point was that MattKan is being an douche.

I just want to hug these people, clean the drool off the corner of their lip, pat them on the head and send them back to the sandbox.

If you mean the default HUD (state/status) there's a function for that.

Syntax: setstatusimage(image)

image - Name of new state image.

Example:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() {
  
setstatusimage("betterstate.png");
