SetHudTextParams Function

Sets the HUD parameters for drawing text. These parameters are stored globally, although nothing other than this function and SetHudTextParamsEx modify them.

You must call this function before drawing text. If you are drawing text to multiple clients, you can set the parameters once, since they won't be modified. However, as soon as you pass control back to other plugins, you must reset the parameters next time you draw.
