Keybind Atlas
by UmbraLykos
Keybind Atlas is a Forge and NeoForge client overlay that lays out every key binding in a modpack on one readable map, so players can see what each key does and edit it there.
What it does
Modpack controls grow crowded quickly. Instead of scrolling through a long controls menu, a player opens the overlay and sees where each binding comes from. Keys are shown in separate states: assigned keys with an active binding, unused keys that are free, and bindings the player has chosen to hide from the overview. Pointing at a key reveals the action it triggers and the mod that defines it.
The overlay also works as an editor. A player can free an assigned key, pick an unassigned binding from a list grouped by mod, and attach an action to an unused key. Changes can be undone, discarded, or applied once they are ready. Filters by mod or by specific action reduce the visible set to the controls that matter. Custom color-coded categories can be created, edited and deleted inside the overlay to group assigned bindings.
The panel can be tuned with keyboard layout selection, toggles for function and extra keys, animation controls, hidden-binding controls, scale adjustments, and panel styling. Mod and binding filters are stored between sessions. The mod runs on the client alone and needs no server installation. Builds exist for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and the latest files are 1.4.0, released 2026-05-11.
Key features
Assigned and free key view
Keys with active bindings and keys that are unused appear in visibly different states on the same map.
Hover details
Pointing at a key displays its action and the source mod, which makes unfamiliar bindings easier to trace.
In-overlay editing
A player can remove, rebind or assign keys directly from the overlay, then undo, discard or apply the changes.
Filtering and categories
Bindings can be filtered by mod or action, and grouped into custom color-coded categories.

Use cases
Modpack control setups
Packs with many key-driven features, such as vehicles, abilities, gadgets or magic systems, can show all controls in one place.
Learning new controls
New players can read the layout and the source of each binding without opening the full controls menu.
Who it’s for: Players of large modpacks with many key bindings, and pack authors who want a clear overview of the control setup.
How it compares
Key Flow is a Client-side only mod for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1 that also runs on Fabric and uses a custom license, so it is not open source. Drop-Down Keybindings is Client-side only for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1 on Forge and NeoForge and is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only. Toggle Keybind is Client-side only, is published for Forge and 1.20.1 alone, and is under All rights reserved, so it does not match this mod's NeoForge and 1.21.1 builds.

What the author says
Why? Modpack controls get crowded fast. Instead of digging through long controls menus, players can open a readable map and understand where bindings come from at a glance, and easily edit them. Hovering a key shows the action name and source mod.
