Jacob's BoxRNG Mod
by Jacob2893
Jacob's BoxRNG Mod is a client-side Fabric utility for players who take part in the BoxRNG mode on a Minecraft server that is named in the author notes.
What it does
The mod is built as a quality-of-life addition for the BoxRNG mode on a Minecraft server. It tracks the kills left before a target and shows a notification at set thresholds, including a red alert with sound at 90 percent and a darker red alert with sound when 10 kills remain.
Only the client needs the mod, so a player can install it alone while joining a server that does not run it. It is published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.21.4, as version 1.0.0 dated 2025-01-17. The source code is available and the project is released under the Apache License 2.0, which makes it open source.
Key features
Kill countdown notifications
A red alert with sound appears at the 90 percent mark, and a darker red alert with sound fires when 10 kills remain.
Out-of-range hologram handling
Holograms that leave the player's range are marked, and they disappear when the player gets too far away on the server side.
Last-seen value display
The display keeps the last recorded value on screen, though the author notes that holograms limit what it can show for now.
Planned settings screen
A future version is planned to add a GUI for editing the different aspects of the mod, and the /jacobsmod command is reserved for it.
