A '''Heads-up display''', often abbreviated as '''HUD''', is a set of indicators used in most games to show the player's current status in a game, such as the score, health and the like. A HUD can be used to convey many different types of information, such as time, score, money, health, armour, weaponry, ammunition, warnings (eg "wrong way" in a race) maps with blips and subtitles of conversations. | A '''Heads-up display''', often abbreviated as '''HUD''', is a set of indicators used in most games to show the player's current status in a game, such as the score, health and the like.

Floating [[pickup]]s, such as a police bribe are not considered to be a part of the HUD even though only the player can see them. This is also true for floating markers which indicate where to park or walk into. | Floating [[pickup]]s, such as a police bribe are not considered to be a part of the HUD even though only the player can see them.
