Advanced HUD
by yigitguven
Advanced HUD is a client-side overlay that shows live details about the block or entity the player is looking at.
What it does
When the crosshair rests on a block or entity, the overlay names it and reports related data: the tool tier a block needs, a smooth progress bar while the block is being broken, and the exact growth percentage of major crops. Beehives and bee nests show how many bees they hold, and blocks report whether they are waterlogged. Entity health appears as a heart-themed bar with the armor value beside it.
Container information covers furnaces, brewing stands and other synced containers, listing item counts and capacity, and it shows custom names on renamed chests. The interface is built to fit the look of vanilla Minecraft and can be adjusted in the in-game Mod Menu screen or in the advanced-hud.json configuration file. Installation needs Fabric API, and Cloth Config API and Mod Menu are optional. The project is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across the 1.20.1 – 26.1.2 range.
