SpaceTNTTracker
by _Klaidi4_
SpaceTNTTracker shows a client-side countdown for primed TNT on screen, so a player can see when an explosion will happen.
What it does
The timer runs on the player's own machine and calculates the time left until each explosion from the PC system clock, so it stays accurate even when the server lags or its TPS drops. The mod is written for players on Anarchy Factions servers, where unexpected TNT explosions from server lag are a recurring problem.
A configurable HUD widget displays the countdown and can be dragged anywhere on screen; its scale is changed with the mouse scroll wheel. Highlighting can make primed TNT glow so it stays visible through tall grass and behind obstacles. The in-game Cloth Config menu lets players tune the detection range, alert loudness, widget size and lettering.
Installation needs Fabric API 2 and Cloth Config API, both of which must be present for the mod to function. SpaceTNTTracker is a Fabric mod with a client-side only environment, so servers do not need it. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source, with files for 1.16.5 – 1.21.11 and 1.1.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest file.
