Anita-UI — hud for Deadlock
Unleash your mod's full potential with Anita-UI! For Players Anita-UI is a centralized settings hub that allows you to fine-tune your favorite mods in real-time. Say goodbye to the chore of installing multiple versions of the same mod just to change a single setting. With Anita-UI, you can customize your experience exactly how you like it, directly in-game. Installation: Place the Anita-UI VPK into your game/citadel/addons folder. Ensure it has a higher number if you use other UI mods (98 by default), and you're good to go! IMPORTANT: This mod is currently under active development . Persistent storage is not yet available. This means settings will revert to their defaults every time you restart the game. I am working on a solution for future updates! For Developers Empower your users by giving them choices. Use Anita-UI as a bridge to let players customize your mod's behavior. This saves you from creating multiple VPKs for different edge cases. How to Integrate (3 Easy Steps) Integrating your mod takes less than 5 minutes. Here is how to do it using one of my mods "Minimap Reminder" as an example: 1. Expose your Data Organize your settings into a CONFIG object at the top of your script. var CONFIG = { MIN_INTERVAL: 10.0, IS_DEV: 0 }; 2. Define your UI Schema Create the menuConfig object. The id of each element must match the name of the variable in your CONFIG object . 3. Paste…
Compatibility
Model replacements are the first thing to break when Valve edits a skeleton, so re-check after each patch. It conflicts with any other mod replacing the same asset — two in the addons folder means whichever loads last wins, and the other one silently does nothing.
Is it safe
It is client-side: the file lives on your machine and other players see the default game. Cosmetic addons have not produced bans, but Deadlock is in active development and nothing about mods is officially supported. Keep a copy of the folder before a patch and remove it if the game stops launching.

Frequently asked questions
How do I install Anita-UI?▾▴
.vpk into game/citadel/addons and name it pak01_dir.vpk. That folder only loads once gameinfo.gi lists it, which is a one-time edit — check the install guide.Is Anita-UI safe to install?▾▴
.vpk is a data archive, not a program, so it cannot execute code the way an installer can. The risk is provenance. This one has 2,138 installs, so a problem would have surfaced on its GameBanana thread. Mods with almost no downloads from accounts with no history have had none of that scrutiny.Will other players see this mod?▾▴
Can I run it alongside other mods?▾▴
pak01_dir.vpk and pak02_dir.vpk installed, pak01 wins and the other does nothing.Does it still work after the latest patch?▾▴
gameinfo.gi and remove your search paths, which stops every manually installed mod at once — redo that edit and they come back. Separately, model replacements break first when Valve edits a skeleton; recolours and HUD mods usually survive. The author posts updates on the GameBanana page.Where does the download come from?▾▴
How do I remove Anita-UI?▾▴
.vpk from game/citadel/addons, or toggle it off in the Deadlock Mod Manager library. Mods never overwrite game files, so nothing needs repairing afterwards.
