Coords HUD

by fennifith

With Coords HUD, players see their coordinates in the action bar at all times, and the server controls the text shown there.

What it does

Coords HUD is a server-side mod that sends configurable HUD text to players through the action bar. Server owners can set custom messages for the whole server or for individual players, and the text can include placeholders supplied by the Placeholder API. Each new player starts with the HUD enabled unless the server changes the isEnabledByDefault option, which defaults to true.

The mod was built to remove a repeated chore on Minecraft BINGO servers, where players had to run the /trigger ch toggle command again after each restart onto a new world. The author also describes the mod as more efficient on large servers, because it avoids costly processing and sends fewer packets than the Coordinates HUD datapack from Vanilla Tweaks, which it resembles. The author notes that the speed difference is unlikely to be noticed by most players, and recommends the datapack when the extra options are not needed.

Coords HUD requires Fabric API and runs on Fabric and Quilt. It is published for 20 release versions, 1.20.4 – 26.3, with the latest files for 26.3. The code is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only.

Key features

  1. Server-wide and per-player messages

    The HUD can show one message to every player or a different message to each player, depending on how the server is set up.

  2. Raw JSON text format

    The default HUD format is written in Raw JSON text format syntax, which allows colors and other text styling.

  3. Lower packet use

    The mod sends fewer packets than a datapack doing the same job, which the author describes as a gain on large servers.

How it compares

Full comparison

Recall Coords is a client-side only mod that works on Fabric and Quilt, released under the MIT License and not open source, for 1.21 – 26.3. Bcoordinates is client-side only and open source under the MIT License, but it only runs on Fabric for 1.21.4 – 1.21.11. Coords Action Bar is client-side only, licensed under the MIT License and not open source, and works on Fabric for 1.19 – 26.1.2. Coords HUD differs from all three because it is server-side only, so players join without installing anything.

What the author says

This is a small server-side mod to provide fast and configurable HUD text to players. It's very similar to the "Coordinates HUD" datapack from Vanilla Tweaks! This was primarily built so that Minecraft BINGO players don't need to re-run the /trigger ch_toggle command every time the server restarts with a new world…
