AlwaysVisibleNametags

AlwaysVisibleNametags

An enhanced nameplate mod for R.E.P.O that keeps living player tags visible, adds nameplates to death heads, and offers extensive customization.

Improve situational awareness and never lose track of who's who, whether they're alive across the map or recently deceased nearby!

✨ Features

• Persistent Living Nameplates: Forces living player name tags to stay at full alpha (100% opacity) unless disabled. (Configurable)
• Death Head Nameplates: Adds clear nameplates above player PlayerDeathHead objects when they die. (Configurable)
• Highly Configurable: Tailor the experience via the BepInEx configuration file or an in-game configuration manager:
• Master Toggles: Enable/disable modifications for living players and the death head feature independently.
• Visibility Control:
• Option to completely hide the original living player nameplates.
• Control whether you see the nameplate above your own death head.
• Death Head Positioning: Adjust the vertical (Y-axis) offset for death head nameplates.
• Advanced Scaling: Independent scaling options for both living and death head nameplates:
• Choose between standard (shrink with distance) or reverse (grow with distance) scaling modes.
• Set minimum and maximum font sizes.
• Adjust the scaling factor to control how fast size changes with distance.
• Dynamic Configuration: Configuration changes apply instantly in-game without needing a restart!
• Compatibility: Plays nicely with vanilla UI and mods like ColoredNametags and configuration managers.
