MCCI Compact Fishing Message
MCCI Compact Fishing Message is a Fabric client mod that shortens the messages shown when a fishing catch is made.
What it does
The mod shortens the fishing messages that the MCC Island server sends. It removes the trigger text and keeps the icon shown after a catch, and it can disable the default receive messages in favour of a shorter unboxing summary. Recording of unboxing events starts with a command, and the statistics screen can be opened while fishing.
The statistics overlay tracks the time elapsed, the total number of reel-ins and the XP gained, and it resets when the client restarts. Its position, size and colours are set through Mod Menu, and an overlay can show the bait line and Overclocks on screen after a switch. Settings are opened with the K key from the same menu.
The mod is published for Fabric only, across 16 release versions 1.21.1 – 26.3, and the latest file targets 26.3. It is a client-side mod, so only the player needs it. The code is under the MIT License, so it is open source. Cloth Config API is required and must be installed alongside it.
