Can I make a HUD?

I just bought this TP script that when you click on something it TPs you to the location of the LM placed inside it.

My dream has always been to hand out a TP/LM HUD to customers, to help them find their way around 2 sims of stuff. Is it possible to make a HUD TP thing using this script? Are there HUD directions someplace?

Thanks!

A HUD is nothing but a simple everyday object attached to the HUD attachment points :3 That's it.

So, yes, very doable.
A hint:

Give the HUD script a line of

llSetRot(llEuler2Rot(<90,0,0> * DEG_TO_RAD));

in the on_rez event for example, if the hud should be rotated 90 0 0 degrees to look right. This will make sure it rotates correctly on every hud attachment point. Just build it, attach, check what rotation is correct and use it in that line.

Do you mind a map window popping up each time or is that what you are trying to avoid?....
