by Xing-C

What it does

The mod draws the player's health, absorption and food in a bar layout instead of the default icons. Health can be shown as a number and can exceed 20 points, and absorption is displayed on its own. Textures change when a debuff such as withering, poisoning, freezing or starvation is active, so the effect is visible without opening any menu.

Most of the on-screen text can be configured. Function switches turn individual parts of the display on or off, and the colour of nearly every text element can be chosen separately through the config. Fabric API is required on Fabric, and Artifacts and Dehydration are optional dependencies that add their own entries when present. The mod runs on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and it is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. Only the client needs it, so servers run without it.
