Simple Health Bar - V1.5.2

A lightweight mod that adds a clean, easy-to-read health bar above your inventory in Schedule I. Keep track of health at a glance with world-space bars for NPCs and other players.

Version 1.5.2 supports the current beta and alternate-beta branches, adds world-space multiplayer health bars, and supports both Il2Cpp and Mono versions of the game!

Key Features

• On-Screen Health Display

A subtle health bar appears just above your inventory UI, showing current and maximum health in real time.

• Auto-Hide & Persistent Modes

Choose to have the bar fade out after a few seconds of full health, or keep it visible at all times.

• World-Space NPC Healthbars

Healthbars now appear directly above each NPC's head in the game world! See health information for all NPCs within a configurable radius (default 50m). Healthbars automatically fade out when NPCs are dead, knocked out, or inside buildings. Fully configurable scale, position, and display radius.

• World-Space Multiplayer Health Bars

In multiplayer sessions, health bars for other players appear above their heads and always face your camera. Each bar shows the synchronized player name and current health, automatically updating as players join or leave.

• Easy Configuration

Bar display duration, time, and speed via a simple config file. More coming in a future update.

• Future Enhancements (WIP)
• Customizable thresholds and warnings
• User-suggested features – drop your ideas in the discussion!

In-Game Configuration

Mod Manager – Phone App Integration

If you install the Mod Manager – Phone App (Nexus #397), you can browse and tweak all settings directly through your phone’s Settings app.

Manual CFG Config

Settings are stored in your MelonLoader preferences file. To customize without the phone app, open:

/Schedule I/UserData/MelonPreferences.cfg

Locate (or add) the following sections and adjust these values:

[SimpleHealthBar_HealthBar]
# Fades the health bar after a few seconds
FadeOutBar = true
# Fades out the text display showing your health
FadeOutHealthText = true
# Shows player and NPC bars only while they are damaged
ShowOnDamage = true
# Configures the font size of the text label HUD element
FontSize = 12.0

[SimpleHealthBar_Animation]
# The amount of time in seconds it takes for the bar and text to disappear
FadeDelay = 10.0
# Manages the speed of the fade transition
FadeSpeed = 5.0

[SimpleHealthBar_NPCHealthBar]
# Enables the health bar for NPCs
NPCBarEnabled = true
# Enables fading out the health bar for NPCs
FadeOutNPCBar = false
# Maximum distance from player to display NPC health bars (in meters)
NPCWorldSpaceRadius = 50.0
# Vertical offset above NPC transform for health bar position (in meters)
NPCHeadOffset = 2.0
# Multiplier for NPC health bar size (base scale: 0.005). Use simple values like 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, etc.
NPCHealthBarScale = 1.0

After editing, save the file and restart Schedule I for changes to take effect.
