Agreed its nice to be able to see how others play our beloved game and go possibly improve something on your experience. Now the one of the questions I have for our experienced coders is there a way to make a "Enemy" Bar that allows you to forgo always hitting "H ALL" to see the health of the one you are fighting. Perhaps to expand on that is is there a way that the can can tell a player how many enemies he's fighting, and have a dynamic enemy bar grouping that changes depending on who's attacking you and what their health is? Wish I had the knowledge to know how to code what I'd like to do. More of a Vision guy then a Coder guy:)

There's always a way.

Unless someone already has something along these lines, I'll start looking into this. My suspicion is that it will not be as easy as the player vitals.

EDIT: As an update, my suspicion was correct. It appears that enemy data is not stored within GMCP data.
