GUI Followers

GUI Followers is a client-side mod which shows a list of all tamed non-sitting following mobs around the player. By default it also shows the health of the follower as a percentage, and how many blocks it is away from the player. Fully configurable! You'll never accidentally leave your wolf buddy behind.

   All available config options:

followerListHeaderFormat  default "Followers:"
The header text above the follower list.

showFollowerHealth  default true
If enabled, shows the follower's health in the GUI list.

followerHealthFormat  default "
<health>%"): The format of the health string in the GUI. <health> will be replaced by the percentage of total health.

showFollowerDistance  default true
If enabled, shows the follower's distance in blocks to the player in the GUI list.

followerDistanceFormat  default " (<distance> blocks
The format of the distance string in the GUI. <distance> will be replaced by distance in blocks.

distanceToCheckForFollowersAround  default 50, min -1, max 300
The distance in blocks around the player where the mod checks for tamed, non-sitting followers to add to the list. A value of -1 disables this feature.

timeBetweenChecksInSeconds  default 2, min 0, max 3600
The time in seconds in between checking for tamed, non-sitting followers around the player.

followerListPositionIsLeft  default true
Places the follower list on the left.

followerListPositionIsCenter  default false
Places the follower list in the middle.

followerListPositionIsRight  default false
Places the follower list on the right.

followerListHeightOffset  default 20, min 0, max 3000
The vertical offset (y coord) for the follower list. This determines how far down the list should be on the screen. Can be changed to prevent GUIs from overlapping.

drawTextShadow  default true
If the text displayed should have a shadow drawn below it.

RGB_R  default 255, min 0, max 255
The red RGB value for the text.

RGB_G  default 255, min 0, max 255
The green RGB value for the text.

RGB_B  default 255, min 0, max 255
The blue RGB value for the text.

The wolf named buddy shown in the GUI:

The wolf buddy is currently at 85% health. I did feel a little bad about testing this.

Sitting entities will not be added to the follower list.

Long distances are supported.
