sound rader
by kweetn
Sound Rader adds a Fortnite-style sound radar to the HUD, showing where nearby sounds come from as colored dots on an invisible circle around the player's position.
What it does
Instead of drawing a visible ring, the HUD places indicators at points along an invisible circle. A sound coming from behind the player appears at the bottom of the circle, and a sound from the front appears at the top, so direction reads at a glance. Players, mobs, attacks and projectiles can all register on the radar.
The radar is configured in the game's settings, where the detection range, icon size, colors and the on or off setting for each event type can be adjusted. Sound Rader runs on Fabric for 1.21.11, and it works on either side, and neither side needs it. The code is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
