This mod makes incoming emails display a HUD popup with the portrait of the sender, the sender's name, and the message subject. With autologs enabled, it will also automatically play logs when picked up. Be aware that with this option enabled it is very easy to miss vital information from incoming emails because they will be interrupted by any logs you pick up. Possibly not recommended for first-time players.

Should be compatible with all fan missions/campaigns.

Here's a video of an early version where the popups stayed for the full length of the log. That didn't work out for various reasons, so now popups just display for a flat 10 seconds.

To turn off automatic log playing, open hudlogs.nut and change AUTO_LOGS from true to false.

I'd like to get some testers to try this before I release it in the mods topic. It re-implements several base scripts, and I'm not 100% I got them all right. Also I haven't tested this in multiplayer.

Going by the lack of catastrophic feedback, I'm going to assume this is good enough. Posted the final(?) version in the mods forum here: https://www.systemshock.org/index.php?topic=10330.0
