Shoulder Check

by mikovogel2008

Shoulder Check lets a player glance behind while holding a key, so chasing enemies can be spotted without turning around.

FabricForgeClient-side onlyAll rights reserved1.8.9 – 1.21.11

What it does

Holding the look-back key shows what is behind the player, which helps when an enemy is following closely. The mod is a client-side only addition, so only the player's game needs it and a server runs without it. Required dependency: Fabric API, on Fabric builds. Optional dependency: SimpleMultiplayerPing.

Key features

  1. Look-back key

    Holding a dedicated key turns the view to the rear, letting the player check for enemies chasing from behind.

  2. Enemy spotting

    The rear view is meant for spotting pursuers during fights and escapes, without stopping movement.
