I have some ideas for developers.

1. A new optional hud element to visualize speed (like shownetgraph but for speed). It would be much easier to teach people movement with it.
2. A new optional hud element that shows health/armor/weapon stats of your team (think MMORPG party stats) - for more teamwork.
3. -10 damage for nex (to make it 120) so that laserjump + nex midair isnt instant kill

Thats it for now, discuss

I like the ideas.

Agree, but would not be that useful for experienced players IMO.

Mh, the little pieces that i know about nexuiz make me believe that the client does not know that. So the server would have to transfer that or at least every time someones health changes.

Totally agree!

Yeah to each his own, thats the point of "OPTIONAL" in my idea - if you dont need it any more just turn it off

These are three completely different things.
+1 on the speedgraph. It would be quicker to read than the numbers. The reason I use the m/s unit now, is because it's easier to read. I was thinking in line with the visualizations on equalizers to music player apps. One speed colorcoded bar with logarithmic length. A top part that sinks more slowly. (It doesnt have to be vertical.) There could be an acceleration bar too. That one could be small. It would be mostly useful for weaponless movement, so it wouldnt matter if it maxed out as early as during laserjumps. Maybe it would be useful for when you bend your flight path too.
