Summary

0001465: +NETWORKHEALTH actor flag

Description

Since we don't pass actor healths around due to what I guess are BW reasons, client-side scripts don't healths of anything other than the teammates of the consoleplayer.

This flag would make the server tell clients the health of the actor unconditionally, it would be useful for client-side scripting like often-updating per-player HUDs which rely on information like this.

Would this be an idea? I'd code it up if desired.

Notes
(0007033) Dusk (developer) 2013-08-16 21:31	after discussion with blzut it was concluded that this wouldn't fix anything as any latency present in connections would affect the health transfers as well. apparently correcting hudmessage handling with newly connecting clients would be a better idea.
