Near-Sightedly

There will be no updates for this mod above version 1.17 since its functionality has been integrated into the base game.

near-sightedly, adv. "In a near-sighted manner; short-sightedly. Also figurative."

This is an extremely simple modification that represents my first experience with Fabric. It performs one single function: automatically adjusting the client's render distance to match the server's view distance settings. The mod is only active when connecting to multiplayer servers and has no effect when installed server-side.

The main reason for creating this mod is that Minecraft calculates fog based on the client's render distance, not the number of loaded chunks. If you set the render distance to 32 chunks but the server only sends 10, the fog will appear far beyond the loaded area of the world.

Updates will be released as issues are discovered or new versions of Minecraft are released. Don't expect frequent changes.
