Locator menu gui

by FrontikYT

Locator menu gui is a Fabric client mod that opens a menu listing nearby mobs and players with their positions.

FabricClient-side onlyGNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or laterOpen source1.21.11

What it does

The menu shows how high or how low each tracked mob or player stands relative to the player, and it updates as entities move through render distance. Clicking an entry in the chat opens a position view, and the menu can be dragged to any spot on screen. Only the client needs the mod, so servers run without it. The code is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later, and files are published for 1.21.11 only.

Key features

  1. Nearby entity list

    Lists mobs and players close to the render distance, so entities out of sight still appear in the menu.

  2. Height readout

    Each entry shows how high or how low the entity sits relative to the player.

  3. Movable menu

    The menu window can be dragged and placed anywhere on the screen.
