DRG Laser Pointer
by linngdu664
DRG Laser Pointer lets players mark blocks, mobs and other entities with a laser that other players can see, borrowing the pointer from Deep Rock Galactic.
What it does
A held laser pointer marks the block or entity it is aimed at, and the mark is visible to other players, who are alerted when it lands. Marking gold blocks, mushrooms or entities makes the dwarf voice lines play, as in the game the mod is taken from. A config file sets the maximum marking distance and whether the marker is drawn as a cube or a sphere. Holding Ctrl temporarily moves the pointer to the main hand from a backpack. Files target 1.19.4 – 1.21.1 on Forge and NeoForge, and the mod is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. Client and server both need it.
