Accurate Attack Indicator
by Bluebird
With Accurate Attack Indicator, the attack cooldown shown on screen stays in step with the game's real timer, including the moment it resets.
What it does
The indicator on the HUD tracks the attack cooldown of the player's held weapon. Vanilla Minecraft can reset that cooldown without showing it, so the visual may read as ready when the attack is still charging. This mod draws the actual state, which lets a player time strikes by sight. It runs on the client alone, so servers do not need it and players can join without installing it.
Files are published for Fabric and Quilt, with builds for 26.3 as the latest release, and the 1.21.11 – 26.3 range covers six game versions. The project is not open source, and its code is released under All rights reserved. Public source code and an issue tracker are linked from the project page.

Client-side operation
The display is drawn on the client, so the indicator can be used in single-player and on any server.
