Simple Night Vision Goggles
Simple Night Vision Goggles brings wearable night vision goggles to Forge, crafted in several colors and worn through the Curios API.
What it does
The goggles are a piece of equipment that players craft and wear in a Curios slot. Crafting uses iron ingots, a glass pane and a green or blue dye, so each variant is a different recipe. The mod requires Curios API, and it runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Builds cover 1.16.5 – 1.20.1 and are released under All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.

Classic gun pairing
