Health Status Indicator
by NovaSlayerYT
Health Status Indicator is a Fabric HUD addon that shows hearts, armor, hunger and status effects in a classic style.
What it does
Health Status Indicator draws the player's survival stats on the heads-up display: hearts, armor points, hunger and saturation, plus active status effects, arranged in the familiar classic layout. Only the client needs the mod to show the indicator, and a server may add it too for extra features. The mod is published for Fabric only, with a single build for 1.21.4, released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Classic-style stat display
Hearts, armor, hunger and saturation are drawn in the style of vanilla Minecraft's survival bar.
Status effect indicators
Active potion effects appear on the HUD alongside the other survival stats while the player is in play.
Light HUD overlay
The overlay is kept minimal so it adds little rendering load during survival and PvP sessions.
