Floating Damage Indicators
by 3CTeam
Floating Damage Indicators shows damage numbers above entities as they are hit, including damage the player takes, and can be configured for each.
What it does
Damage values appear as floating numbers over the target when it is struck, and the same display covers the player's own incoming damage. Each number can be color-coded by damage type, and a six-digit hex color (RGB) can be set per type. Custom text can be shown before the number, or the number can be hidden for a given type altogether.
The mod works in singleplayer, on dedicated servers and in multiplayer. It is client and server, so the server and every player need it. The in-game configuration is reached through the Mod Menu Fabric config button in the mods list on Fabric, or the same mod list entry on NeoForge. A configuration file is generated after the game is launched once, and the format entry can be set to false so that only the prefix of the damage number is shown.
The mod is published for Fabric and NeoForge, with files for 26.3, 26.2, 26.1.2, 1.21.11 and 1.21.1. The code is open source under the MIT License. Fabric API is required on Fabric, and Mod Menu is optional for in-game configuration.
Key features
Floating damage numbers
Numbers appear above the entity that was hit, so damage can be read without opening a log or chat.
Incoming damage display
The player can also see the damage they take, not only the damage they deal.
Color-coded damage types
Each damage type can take a six-digit hex color, so numbers of different types can be told apart at a glance.
Custom prefix text
Custom text can be placed before the number, or the format can show only the prefix in place of the full number.
