Parties and invites
Start a party#
Click the Party chip on the game bar and press Start a party. You're the party leader, and the room opens with your invite link ready. A party holds up to six players, plus the wingman. You can be in one party at a time.
Invite a friend#
Press Invite in the party room and pick a friend who's online, or press Invite on their row in the Friends widget. They get a small pop-up over their game with Join and Decline; if they don't answer, it fades but the invite stays on your row in their Friends widget for 10 minutes, with Join and Decline there. If they're already in another party, WingHUD asks before switching them. You see "Declined" on their row if they say no.
Invite links and party codes#
The party room shows your invite link (winghud.com/p/…) with Copy link and Copy party code (a code like WING-P-4F2Q). Send either one anywhere - Discord, a text, a forum post. A friend who has WingHUD clicks Open in WingHUD on the link's page, even with WingHUD closed: it opens WingHUD and joins your party once they're signed in. They can also paste the link or code into + Add friend in the Friends widget. The link works for 7 days, or until the party ends; if the party has ended, opening it sends you a friend request instead.
Invite a friend who doesn't have WingHUD#
Open the Friends widget, click Invite to WingHUD, type your friend's email and press Send invite. They get an email from WingHUD in your display name with a link to install WingHUD (and your party link, if you're in a party). Once they sign up with that address, a friend request from you is waiting for them. You can send 3 invites a week; the last ones you sent are listed under INVITED, with the address partly hidden. If the address already has a WingHUD account, they get your friend code instead - you always see "Invite sent", and asking the same address again within 30 days doesn't send another email. The party room's invite card has the same button.
The party leader#
Whoever starts the party is the leader (marked "leader" in the member strip). Right-click a member's avatar: everyone can Add friend, Mute for me, Block and Report; the leader also gets Mute for everyone and Kick from party. The leader decides whether the wingman is in the party (the Wingman in party switch). When the leader leaves, the member who's been there longest becomes leader.
Leave a party#
Press Leave in the party room. Closing WingHUD or signing out also leaves the party, and a member who's been offline for 10 minutes is taken out so the seat frees up. When the last member leaves, the party ends; its chat and pictures are deleted 24 hours later.
