HealthGuard
A Minecraft Fabric mod that provides visual warning overlays when your health is low or when you have a totem of undying in your inventory but not equipped in your offhand.
Features
Low Health Warning Overlay
When your health drops below a configurable threshold, a red warning overlay will flash on your screen to alert you of the danger.
- Configurable Health Threshold - Set at what health level the warning triggers (1-20 hearts)
- Adjustable Flash Speed - Control how fast the overlay flashes (0.5x - 10x speed)
- Customizable Transparency - Adjust minimum and maximum alpha levels for the flash effect
Totem Warning System
HealthGuard monitors your totem of undying and warns you when you have one in your inventory but haven't equipped it in your offhand slot.
- Visual Overlay - White flashing overlay when totem is in inventory but not offhand
- Warning Icon - An animated warning icon appears above the offhand slot with a bobbing animation
- Independent Settings - Configure flash speed, transparency, and icon animation separately from the health warning
Configuration
All settings can be adjusted in-game through the ModMenu config screen.
