Effect Countdown
by Vercte
Effect Countdown warns players with a sound cue as a potion effect nears its end, so a timed effect such as Invisibility can be renewed in time.
What it does
A sound plays as the last ten seconds of an effect run down, and the timing is set in the configuration. Players who lurk on servers with Invisibility can renew it before it lapses without watching the effect timer. The mod runs on the client only, so servers and other players need nothing installed. It is published for Fabric, for 1.21.2 and nine other builds 1.20.1 – 1.21.5, under the MIT License and open source.
Key features
Warning sound
A sound cue alerts the player when a status effect is about to run out.
Configurable timing
The tick sound and the number of seconds before expiry can be adjusted in the config file.
Lightweight client remedy
Only the client runs the warning, so a server keeps its usual setup and players need no extra server mod.

What the author says
In the minecraft servers I visit, I often find myself lurking around using Invisibility. However, I also often blow my cover through forgetting to renew said Invisibility. This mod is a lightweight client-side remedy: it plays a sound (tick sound, configurable) every second for the last ten seconds of the effect…
