Survival Monitor
by NickTron
Survival Monitor shows warnings in the HUD when a dangerous moment in play is approaching, such as food running low or arrows running out.
What it does
The mod is a small client-side Forge addition for 1.16.5 that sends the player messages about risky situations in play. Alerts cover a dwindling food supply, a quiver nearing empty, dusk closing in and tools close to breaking. Only the player's client needs the mod, so servers run without it and players can join without installing anything. Released under All rights reserved (not open source), with its latest Forge file dated 2026-03-17.
Key features
Food warnings
Messages appear when the player's food supply is running out, so a meal can be planned before hunger sets in.
Arrow and night alerts
The player is told when arrows are running out and when night is approaching, while there is still time to prepare.
Item durability alerts
Warnings are shown before tools and other items are about to break, giving a chance to repair or replace them.

How it compares
Custom3D Food Craft targets Forge for 1.20.1 with client and server installs under All rights reserved, so it does not share the 1.16.5 version of this mod. Its environment differs: it needs both sides, while Survival Monitor runs only on the client.
