Holo Health Indicator
by tricube
Holo Health Indicator shows a health readout above mobs on screen, with display conditions and text formatting that the player can set.
What it does
The mod draws a health indicator over entities in the game world. Which mobs get one, and when the indicator appears, are chosen through display conditions in the config. The text can be formatted, custom mob names are supported, and color code support lets the readout carry colored text. Changes made in the config are applied in the client without a restart of the game.
Holo Health Indicator runs on the client alone, so a server does not need it and players join a server without installing anything extra. It needs Cloth Config API and Hologram API on every loader, and Fabric API on Fabric. Mod Menu is optional on Fabric and gives access to the config screen from the mod list. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 11 release versions, 1.20.1 – 1.21.11, and the code is under the MIT License, so the project is open source.
Key features
Mob health readout
Entities show their health as a readout above them, which can be shown for selected mobs only.
Display conditions
Selectable conditions decide when an indicator appears, so the readout can be limited to chosen situations.
Text formatting
The text of each indicator can be customized, and color codes can be used inside it.
Custom mob names
Mobs can be given custom names in the readout, and the names follow the formatting settings.
Command-based config
A command opens the config, and the same settings can also be reached through the mod list.
