The HUD Tweaker is a world tweaker gadget in LittleBigPlanet Karting that allows HUD Widgets to be tweaked using logic.

Usage and Behaviour

Although the HUD Tweaker is primarily intended to work with Custom Widgets, General Widgets can have their visibility switched on or off by setting the HUD Type to one of the General Widgets and connecting a wire into its input, e.g. the minimap can set to only appear when the player is inside a Player Sensor's detection range. In addition to the widgets that can normally be selected in the Tools Bag, the visibility of the Grapple Callout (usually displayed when approaching a grapple-able object while equipped with the Grapple Hook) and Rader indicators can also be switched on or off with this setup.

Tweaks
