Better Invisibility
Better Invisibility changes how the Invisibility effect behaves, so that invisible players are harder to detect by mobs and other players.
What it does
Under the vanilla Invisibility effect, a player stays visible in some ways, such as held weapons and armor. Better Invisibility aims to make the effect work more like stealth in video games. Hidden players can be spotted only when they come close to a mob, and the mod can remove the effect when a mob gets too near or attacks. Mob AI treats an invisible player differently, and hiding works with most custom mobs.
The mod adds settings for particle effects, a proximity sensor, and an option that gives mobs a blindness effect when they target an invisible player. The config file controls these features and sets the difficulty, so server owners can tune how strong the stealth is. The mod suits PvP and multiplayer servers. It is published for NeoForge and Forge, and it needs both the server and every player to have it installed. Its in-game options are reached from the Mods list in the main menu, and Better Invisibility is listed there.
