OneBar
by robotkoer
OneBar merges the health, hunger, air and armor readouts into a single HUD bar for players who want a sleeker screen.
What it does
Health is always the first number on the bar and hunger almost always the last, with positive effects shown left-to-right and negative effects right-to-left. While a player is hungry, a hunger overlay sits over the health value, and that overlay disappears once the player eats. Underwater, a water bar appears above health and hunger, since air is the value that matters most at that moment. Damage sources can be turned off so that extra health readouts stay hidden.
OneBar is a client-side only mod, so only the client needs it and servers run without it. Installation needs Cloth Config API and Fabric API, and Mod Menu and Sodium are optional companions. Files are published for Fabric and Quilt across 40 release versions, 1.16 – 26.3, and the mod is released under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 as open source.
Key features
Single-bar HUD
Health, hunger, effects and air values are combined into one bar, so the rest of the screen stays clear.
Effect placement
Positive effects are drawn left-to-right and negative effects right-to-left, each side kept apart.
Additional symbols
An option in the settings turns on icons for the extra values, so each readout can be recognized at a glance.
Color and opacity settings
Many colors and visibility options for the elements can be set in the config screen, with opacity and RGB hex values.
