About this project

What does Effects (Buff/Debuff) Box - Barebones Framework add?

What it is

[[Designed for as a barebones framework for modders to flesh out!]]

Buffbox — See your buffs. Move them. Keep them simple.

Buffbox is a lightweight HUD strip for Vintage Story: timed effects show as familiar item icons in small squares, with a soft pulse while they’re active. Right-drag the strip to park it anywhere. Effects use real stats on your character, sync over the network, clear on death, and expire on their own—no separate buff database. Includes /slow and /attackspeed test commands (gamemode) so you can try movement and combat tempo buffs out of the box. Built as a foundation for other mods to drive the same strip via a small server API.

We want clear, Vintage-Story-native feedback for temporary power-ups and downsides: icons from real items, time on the entity, one draggable row—enough to read at a glance without turning the game into an MMO buff bar.
