[Open Assets] Multiplayer nameplates 1

A small mod idea I've been playing around with for multiplayer games: MMO style nameplates that display players' names over their heads along with the last chat message they sent. Optionally it can also show players' ringcounts. Players can choose what colour their name is. It displays on the HUD so it is not blocked by objects in the world, but there is a line of sight check so you can't use it to see people through walls.

All you need to to is load the script and start a server. It includes both server- and player-level options.

Server console commands (can only be run by server admins):

• shownames on/off (default: on) - show names over players' heads
• showchats on/off (default on) - show the last chat message a player said over them
• showrings on/off (default off) - show the player's ringcount over their head
• flashrings on/off (default on) - flash the ring counter if player has no rings
• flashnames on/off (default off) - flash the player name if a player has no rings

Player console commands:

• namecolour [colour] - change what colour your name displays as (see list of colours below)
• shownamedistance [number] (default 1500) - how close you need to be to a player for the nameplate to appear
• showownname on/off (default off) - show your own nameplate
• showbotnames on/off (default off) - show nameplates for bots

The colour options are pink, yellow, green, blue, red, grey, orange, sky, purple, aqua, peridot, azure, brown, rosy and black.

(for Americans the command namecolor also works)

It looks a bit wonky in first person but I'm not sure how to compensate for that.
