Moon Phase Info+
by ZtereoHYPE
Moon Phase Info+ shows the current moon phase, its size and the time left until the next phase in a small on-screen badge.
What it does
The badge lists the current moon phase with a small image of the moon, the moon's size, and an up or down arrow that shows whether the moon is growing or shrinking. A line beneath gives the time remaining until the next phase. The mod fits survival play, where the phase can guide plans for night travel and farming, and it is a fork of an earlier Moon Phase Info mod that has since been updated.
The badge sits on the right side of the screen by default, and it can be moved to the top or bottom of the screen through a small configuration file the mod creates. The HUD is drawn only on the client, so the mod runs in single-player and on a client joining a server, and servers need nothing installed. Installation needs Fabric or Quilt, and files cover game versions 1.18 – 1.20.2, with 1.1.1 as the latest release for 1.20.2 on both loaders.
Key features
Current moon phase
The badge shows the phase of the moon at the moment, with a small image matching the phase.
Moon size and trend
An arrow shows whether the moon is getting larger or smaller, so the direction of the cycle is visible at a glance.
Time to next phase
A line on the badge counts down the time left until the next moon phase begins.
Configurable position
The badge can be placed at the top, bottom or right of the screen, and the default is the right side.

Use cases
Night travel planning
Players checking the moon before a night journey can see when the next phase arrives without leaving the game view.
Swamp slime hunts
The phase can help players time trips to swamp biomes for slimeballs, since moon phase affects that plan.
Who it’s for: Players of Fabric or Quilt who want the moon phase and the countdown visible during play, in single-player or on a server they join.

Moon Info is open source under The Unlicense, and it targets Fabric for 1.19.3 – 1.20.4. Simple HUD Utilities is open source under the MIT License, is Fabric only, and covers 1.18.2 – 1.20.6. Moon Phase Info+ is also open source under The Unlicense, but it adds Quilt and spans 1.18 – 1.20.2, with the same client-side environment as the others.
