THUD
From BattletechMUX
Thud is an open-source graphical heads up display for BTech MUXes. Thud can connect to any BattletechMUX that supports a certain protocol known as 'hudinfo.'
Thud (Tony's Heads Up Display) is a pure Java client designed to retrieve combat-related data from the game and display it in a easier-to-read tactical display. It will display a tactical map, contacts list, armor status, heat status, and more. The map displays terrain, cliffs, your own unit, and enemy units. There are a plethora of options available to customize the client to suit your style of playing. Thud is great for new players and veterans alike! See the screenshots to get a good idea of what Thud looks like.
