Mini-cons - Slime Chunk & Deep Dark Icon
Mini-cons adds a small hotbar icon row that shows when the player stands in a slime chunk or inside the Ancient City, with no other changes to play.
What it does
The icon row sits on the hotbar and changes to show whether the player is in a slime chunk, in an Ancient City, or in both. Because the display is the only effect, it is a client-side only mod: the server does not need it, and players connect without installing anything extra. Mini-cons is published for NeoForge for 1.21.1 – 1.21.11, with 1.1.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest file, under the MIT License, and it is not open source.
Key features
Slime chunk indicator
A small hotbar icon appears while the player stands in a slime chunk, marking the chunk while exploring.
Ancient City indicator
A separate icon marks when the player is inside an Ancient City, so deep dark areas are clear without a map.
No gameplay advantage
The icons only report location and change nothing about spawns, drops or mob behavior, so the mod does not give an unfair edge.

What the author says
This light weight mod lets you clearly know when you're inside a slime chunk or an Ancient City. I am in active devlopment and would love if anyone would like to suggest additonal icons to be added. I wanted to try and make this so it wasn't giving an unfair advantage.
