Tnt Cart Counter
by thapro33
Tnt Cart Counter shows how many TNT Minecarts the player carries, displayed as a HUD counter on the game screen.
What it does
Tnt Cart Counter tallies the TNT Minecarts in the player's inventory and displays the total directly on the screen. The count is a HUD element that stays visible while the player plays, so a player who collects or uses these carts can keep track of how many remain without opening the inventory each time. The HUD position can be moved to any spot on the screen.
The mod is inspired by TotemCounter and works as a lightweight client-side HUD. It needs Mod Menu to open its settings and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL) to build the configuration screen. Everything runs on the client alone, so the server does not need the mod. Files are published for Fabric, for 1.21.11 only, with version 1.2 as the latest file, released on 2026-07-04. The code is under the MIT License and the project is not open source.
Key features
Inventory cart count
The total number of TNT Minecarts in the inventory is counted and shown as a number on screen.
Movable HUD
The counter can be dragged to any position on the screen so it does not overlap other HUD elements.
Color-coded count
The displayed number changes color depending on how many carts the player has.
Config toggle
The mod can be switched on or off, and the colors can be disabled entirely from the config screen.

Use cases
Tracking carts during play
A player who gathers TNT Minecarts for a TNT cart setup can read the total at a glance while moving around the world.
Who it’s for: Players who use TNT Minecarts and want a persistent on-screen count of them without checking the inventory. It is a client-side tool, so it fits single-player worlds and multiplayer servers alike.
How it compares
Cart Radar is a client-side Fabric mod for 1.21.11, open source under the MIT License, so it covers a different job than a counter. TNT Cart Helper is also a Fabric mod for 1.21.11 under the MIT License, but it runs on client and server together, so every player and the server need it, and the project is not open source. Golden Apple Counter is a client-side Fabric mod under the MIT License, covering 1.21 – 1.21.11, which counts a different item.
