LocatorBar Range
by Pior
LocatorBar Range limits how far the locator bar reaches, so a server can replace the fixed default range with a configurable amount.
What it does
The range is set globally by the server owner, and the mod updates player attributes so that the waypoint receive range and waypoint transmit range follow that value. The change applies once players join the server. The author describes the code as intentionally simple, and it is published for Fabric on 26.2 only.
The server is the only side that needs the mod, so players join without installing anything. Fabric API is required. The mod is released under the MIT License and is open source.
