About this project

What does Better Item Borders add?

his mod builds upon the original idea by adding dynamic potion borders and instant visual cues for a clearer inventory experience.

  • 🌈 Potion Border Highlights: Highlights potions and tipped arrows in your inventory with customizable glowing borders for duration (Extended) and potency (Enhanced ⭐).

⏱️ Universal Duration Standards To maximize combat clarity and cross-mod compatibility, extended borders use strict, universal time thresholds:

  • 🧪 Regular / Splash Potions: > 3min

  • 💨 Lingering Potions: > 45sec

  • 🏹 Tipped Arrows: >22.5sec

(💡 Short-base potions such as extended Regeneration, Poison, and Turtle Master intentionally do not trigger the border to maintain a uniform, time-based standard across all mods!)
