Waila Events
by Darkhax
Waila Events, a Forge library for 1.7.10, adds events that other mods can hook into around the Waila HUD overlay.
What it does
Waila Events adds several new events to the Waila mod. One event fires before the Waila HUD is rendered, and another fires after it has been rendered. A listening mod can cancel the pre-render event to stop the HUD from being drawn for that frame.
The library is aimed at mod developers who want to extend or modify what Waila shows, rather than at players looking for new gameplay. Its main use is as a dependency for other mods. Waila Inhibitors, for example, requires it to function.
Only Forge is supported, and the only game version with published files is 1.7.10. The latest file is 1.0.0 for 1.7.10, released 2023-06-07. The code is MIT-licensed open source and the source code is publicly available.
Key features
Pre-render HUD event
Before the Waila HUD is drawn, a hook fires, which lets other mods react ahead of rendering.
Cancelable HUD drawing
The pre-render event can be canceled, which prevents the Waila HUD from being drawn.
Post-render HUD event
A second event is triggered after the Waila HUD has been rendered, for work that depends on the finished overlay.
Event-based extension
Other Forge mods subscribe to these events to change Waila behavior without editing Waila itself.

Use cases
Dependency for add-ons
Mods such as Waila Inhibitors list this library as a requirement and rely on its events to run.
HUD customization
A developer can suppress the overlay in specific situations by canceling the pre-render event.
Who it’s for: Mod developers building add-ons for Waila on Minecraft 1.7.10 with Forge, and players who install an add-on that requires this library.
How it compares
The One Probe is a different option: it is open source under the MIT License, runs on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 1.9 – 26.2, and is needed on both client and server. Hwyla is for Fabric and Forge across 1.10.2 – 1.16.5, is not open source, and runs on the client or server with optional installation. Waila Events targets only Forge 1.7.10 and works as an event layer rather than a standalone HUD mod.
