REQUIRES: Nothing

Update 1.1.2 (09/29/02)
============
Fixed typo causing console spam.

Update 1.1.1 (09/28/02)
============
Added code to make the flag messages appear lower onscreen, so as not to cover
up the flag throw strength bar.

Update 1.1.0 (09/28/02)
============
Significant rewrite of HUD code to avoid problems with initial message. Added
separate loader to avoid double execution by autoload.cs.

Update 1.0.2 (09/27/02)
============
Changed the script to say "You Have the Flag" in TR2. It still says "You Have
the Enemy Flag" in CTF.

Update 1.0.1 (09/25/02)
============
Thanks to FleaProblem for the additional code to get this to work with Team
Rabbit 2!

Update 1.0
============
This T2 script is a rewrite of a script called GotFlag.cs, found at
SlingScripts.com. I don't know who wrote the original, as there was no name
associated with the file.

This script is quite simple - it puts an annoying, blinking text message on your
screen a bit below your aiming reticle whenever you have the enemy flag. Handy
for playing with no sound, for example, or if you just aren't used to getting
the flag.

There is a single keybind ("UberGotFlag Transparent") you an assign to toggle
whether the hud has a transparent background or not. The default is transparent.
The script will remember your preference.

The HUD is not HudMover compatible. If people ask for this I will consider
changing the way the script is written to allow for it.


TO INSTALL:
===========
Place UberGotFlag.vl2 anywhere under Tribes2\GameData\base. Play T2!

Enjoy!
