Anytag
by Blatko1
With Anytag, a player crafts a tag item from a name tag and a sign, then right-clicks any block to place floating text on it.
What it does
Anytag adds a crafted item that places a floating text label on any block when it is right-clicked. The label shows the custom name given to the Anytag item, so renaming the item in an anvil changes what appears. Right-clicking the middle of an existing label removes it and returns the Anytag item to the player, while left-clicking removes it and drops a name tag instead.
The item is assembled on the crafting grid from a name tag and a wooden sign, placed in a set order, so it works in survival, creative or adventure play without extra setup. Anytag is published for Fabric, Forge and Quilt, and the server is the side that must run it, while players may also install it. Files cover 9 release versions, 1.19.4 – 1.21, and the latest build is 1.0.1 for 1.21, released on 2024-06-14.
The code is open source under the MIT License, and public links exist for the source code, issue tracker and wiki. The mod was first published on 2024-05-21 and last updated on 2024-06-14. Anytag is a Social mod and also fits the Decoration and Utility categories.
