What it does

Fair Utils adds utility functions that run on the client, so a player can use them without any server-side installation. The author describes it as a collection of helpers for the player's own screen rather than changes to world rules. Its Damage Indicators feature is marked as done, and the author lists further utilities as planned.

Installation needs YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL) alongside the mod. The Fabric build is the only loader listed, published for 1.21.5 as version 0.1.0-alpha, released 2025-06-07 under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license. The mod is not open source, but its source code, issue tracker and wiki are public.

Key features

  1. Damage indicators

    Damage numbers appear for the player's own hits, marking how much damage each attack dealt.

  2. Task tracker in progress

    A task tracker is listed as work in progress, meant to keep the player's goals visible on screen.

  3. Notepad in progress

    A notepad utility is listed as work in progress for writing notes inside the game.

  4. Planned utilities

    A calculator, a death location tracker and waypoints are marked as pending, with no release yet.
