by Patbox

Polydex shows details about the block or entity a player is looking at, as a tooltip, boss bar or sidebar panel.

What it does

Polydex reads the block or entity under the crosshair and presents basic information about it in a tooltip, a boss bar or a sidebar. It also includes a chest-style screen for checking recipes and items, in the spirit of Roughly Enough Items. Only the server side needs the mod, so players join without installing anything. Builds are published for Fabric and Quilt across 31 release versions, 1.18.1 – 26.3, and the code is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, making it open source. Other mods such as PolyFactory, PolydexBridge and Polybook require it.

Key features

  1. Targeted block and entity info

    Information about the block or entity in view appears in a tooltip, boss bar or sidebar panel.

  2. Recipe lookup screen

    A chest-style interface lets players check recipes and items without leaving the game.

  3. Overlay styles

    Results can be shown as a tooltip, a boss bar or a sidebar, similar to WTHIT, HWYLA and WAILA.

What the author says

It can display tooltip (as a bossbar or sidebar) with basic information about targeted block or entity similarly to mods like WTHIT/HWYLA/WAILA. It also adds simple way of checking recipes of items with chest gui interface inspired by mods like Roughly Enough Items / Just Enough Items.
