Chronos Timer
by Uriaras
Chronos Timer, a client-side Fabric mod, replaces the default status effect display with a customizable HUD that shows each active effect with its remaining time.
What it does
Effects are split into groups for beacon effects, regular effects and harmful effects, so the list stays readable during combat, mining or beacon use. Empty or inactive effects are removed automatically, which keeps the HUD compact and limited to the information that matters.
Each effect shows its remaining duration with a visual progress bar that shrinks as the effect approaches its end, so a player can judge the time left without reading the number. Longer effects are counted in minutes, shorter ones in seconds, and infinite effects are marked with a symbol. In the final 10 seconds the timer turns red.
Layouts can be set to horizontal or vertical, placed on the left or right side of the screen, and anchored to several positions. Timers and progress bars can be placed above or below each icon, and the settings screen saves changes automatically. Mod Menu is optional but makes the settings screen easier to reach. The mod requires Fabric API and Nythral Lib, and it is published for Fabric only, in version 1.0.0 for 1.21.11. It is released under the MIT License and is open source.
