Microchip
by jumpcutfindo
Microchip is a Fabric quality-of-life mod for tracking mobs across a world, with health tagging, status checks and grouping tools.
What it does
Players can track mobs across the world, so a specific creature can be followed after it has moved away from the spot where it was first found. Health status is tagged onto tracked mobs, and a view shows the status of mobs in the surrounding area. Mobs can be sorted into groups and categories to keep larger herds or farms organised.
Creative mode gets extra controls that carry out commands on mobs, which are only available in that mode. Fabric API is required, and the mod is published for Fabric only, across 15 release versions 1.18 – 1.21.4. Client and server both need it, and the code is released under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license, so it is not open source. Public links exist for the source code and the issue tracker.
Key features
Mob tracking
Individual mobs can be tracked across the world, so their position stays known after they wander off.
Health status tagging
Tracked mobs carry a tag that shows their health, making it simpler to see which creatures need attention.
Nearby status view
A view lists the status of mobs in the surrounding area, without checking each one separately.
Mob groups and categories
Mobs can be organised into named groups and categories for managing herds, farms or pets.
Creative mode controls
In Creative mode, commands can be carried out on mobs through extra controls that survival play does not offer.
