RE: Message help

For now the easiest solution is to use subtitles instead.

But I know for a fact that it is possible to project a terminal on top of the players face, and therefore get all of the GUI features they have, since they did this with the deathscreen in the maingame.

The problem with using this method in the main game is the following:
1. the deathfx terminal is non transparent, and completely dark, so a custom one must be made (do note that transparent terminals are indeed supported, tested it myself, so it's just a matter of setting it up)
2. the old terminal code was never intended for a moving player, and will likely need to be revised, at least from what I can remember I could not get it to work properly in the time I spend fiddling with it.

This is pretty advanced stuff, so I would recommend going with the subtitle solution for now, unless you suddenly become super modder man.
