About this project

What does Insight add?

Insight

A clean info label for whatever you're looking at, themed health bars over creatures, and a page listing every mod you have installed.

Look at a block, a creature or an item on the ground and Insight shows what it is, which mod it comes from and anything useful to know about it. Everything can be switched on or off from one settings menu, with a live preview as you go. Insight is available in English, Spanish, French, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Ukrainian and Chinese (Simplified).

Features

Blocks

  • Name, icon and the mod it comes from
  • Tool check: shows "Can mine" when your tool will work, or tells you which tool you need
  • Crop growth: current stage, and when it's ready to harvest
  • Bench tiers, processing progress and a peek inside chests

Items on the ground

  • Look at a dropped item to see its name, picture and stack size
  • Shows durability for tools and armor, and which mod the item comes from

Creatures

  • Name, portrait and the mod it comes from
  • Active effects like burning or poisoned
  • Attitude toward you (hostile, neutral, passive, friendly). Off by default

Gear warnings

  • A small warning above the hotbar when your held item or armor is wearing out
  • Choose when it shows: 10%, 25% or 50% durability left

Installed mods

  • /insight mods (or the Mods button in the menu) lists the base game and every mod you have installed
  • See what each one adds: how many blocks, items and creatures
  • A coloured stripe shows the kind of mod: base game, code + assets, code only or assets only
  • Click a mod to see its version, who made it, its description and website

Your language

  • Menus, labels and messages follow your game's language setting
  • English, Spanish, French, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Ukrainian and Chinese (Simplified)
  • Each player on a server sees Insight in their own language

Health Bars

Experimental: the bars are placed on screen by the mod, so they can trail slightly behind fast camera turns.

  • Themed health bars that float above creatures and replace the game's own bar
  • Stay on what you hit: in a fight, the bar keeps following your target for a few seconds, even if you glance away
  • Show bars over other players too, or leave them the game's own bar
  • Damage trail, hit flash and a low-health colour, each optional
  • Optional health numbers on the bar
  • Three sizes, three heights, and how long the bar stays after you look away
  • Turn prediction to keep the bar steady while you look around
  • Has its own menu (/insight bars) with a live preview

Themes

  • Six looks: Classic, Midnight, Glass, Parchment, Ember and Frost
  • Several label sizes
  • Health bars match your label theme, or pick a different one
