Health[edit]
In World of Padman when you run out of health you will die unless you restore your health at a loading station or with the power-up 'revival' unlike in other games. In World of Padman there are no health bubbles to collect unlike in games such as Quake III Arena. As long as you stand on a loading station, which is currently shown on the left of this section, you'll regenerate your health over a short period of time. Naturally, you won't get more than 100% health from a health station, but revival allows you to have up to 200% which is a huge advantage. If you reach maximum health at a loading station a voice that says "full energy" will let you know that you are fully healed. This will not happen with revival. Also, the stations cannon give unlimited health. The size of the cross in the center shows you how much health is left at a station. If a station is empty it will regenerate itself within one minute before it can be used again. Camping on a health station does not guarantee invincibility as it gradually restores your health instead of instantaneously. That gives your opponents the chance to shoot at you and kill you. This is that way to make gameplay more fair and to prevent unfair advantages/disadvantages.
In-Game HUD[edit]
This game has 3 sections of HUDs. They include a left HUD, a middle HUD, and a right HUD, which is only used in certain game modes. There are 10 different HUD designs. These include, in order, black, red, blue, green, chrome, whitemetal, rust, flower, wood, and airforce. The left part of the HUD, which is currently shown to the left of this section, shows your selected weapon and the ammo for it. The scores of the teams are also shown here, so you can see see which team is currently leading. The yellow point containing the X shows which team is yours. The middle part of the HUD is the most important. It shows your health and shield status. The left part (red) is for health, and when completely filled up, you have 100% health. You can have more than 100% health with revival or after respawn, and having part of the bar in a darker red shows this. The blue side (shield) on the right works in the same way. If you have more than 100% shield, a part of the bar is dark blue. The right part of the HUD is special for certain game types. It is explained under the multiplayer modes section of the game type that uses that particular HUD.
