It's pretty simple.  All it does is stuff you could do manually youself.  It just takes a stack of prims that you have linked together and then resizes them and stacks them up, suitable for use as a multi-layer HUD (or whatever), and then deletes itself.  Then you have to do the hard part: write your HUD script to control the radar or whatever else you are doing, and drop it into the linkset so that the layers display whatever your output is.

Thank you for you reply so i just need and the layers will be auto?

I'm not sure I understand your question.  This script doesn't do anything special.  You can get the same result without a script by just stacking a bunch of cube prims, linking them together, and attaching them to your screen.  This script just makes the cubes the right size and turns them to point in the right way, but again, that's stuff you can do without a script.  The "auto" advantage of using a script is almost nothing.

If you want to create a radar HUD (or any other kind of HUD), you'll need to write a script that does it, or post in the InWorld Employment forum to hire a scripter to do it for you.  This script won't do it.
