Arrow Indicator

by sootysplash

Arrow Indicator puts a count of available arrows on the crossbow in the hotbar, so players can see their ammunition at a glance during fights.

What it does

A purely visual Fabric mod that draws a number over a crossbow in the hotbar, showing the total arrows held in the inventory. Fireworks can optionally be included in that total as ammunition for crossbows. The counter is shown while the player is in active combat, and a preview of the total, with the next tipped arrow effect, can appear beside the crossbow item. Client-side only, so a server does not need it. Required dependencies: Cloth Config API, Fabric API and Mod Menu, with Cloth Config and Mod Menu used for the settings screen.

Key features

  1. Crossbow arrow counter

    A number drawn over the crossbow in the hotbar shows the total arrows available in the inventory.

  2. Optional fireworks count

    Valid fireworks can be counted as crossbow ammunition in the total, if the option is turned on.

  3. Tipped arrow preview

    The total and the next tipped arrow effect can be shown beside the crossbow item in the hotbar.
