Better Locator Bar
by Coffeeiscool
Better Locator Bar brings the locator bar from modern Minecraft to Better Than Adventure, showing nearby friends above the hotbar.
What it does
A colored dot on a bar above the hotbar marks each friend's position, and moving the camera shifts the dot to match the direction of that friend. Dots of farther friends shrink, and a Y-level difference indicator shows whether a friend stands above or below the player. The bar keeps tracking a player who has left one's own render distance.
Key features
Direction dots
Each friend appears as a colored dot whose horizontal position follows the camera direction toward that player.
Distance scaling
The dot of a friend further away gets smaller, so proximity is readable at a glance.
Height indicator
A Y-level difference indicator shows how far a tracked player sits above or below the viewer.

What the author says
This mod adds an xp-like bar just above your hotbar that lets you see where your friends are indicated by a colored dot! As you move your camera, the dot changes in the x direction to indicate where your friend is! And as you move further away from your friend, their dot gets smaller!
