Useful Spyglass

Main Features

With this mod, you can get detailed information about mobs when observing them through a spyglass. The screen displays the creature's name, health level, armor stats, and aggression level.

Enchantment System

Starting from version 0.6.0, activating any enchantment triggers a cooldown period for the spyglass. During this period, other enchantments cannot be used. Marking effects applied through enchantments are visible only to the player themselves (update 0.7.0).

Available Enchantments:

Marking - Pressing the attack key while observing through a spyglass marks selected mobs. Activates a cooldown period equal to 0.8 of the marking duration.

Precision - When using a spyglass in the off-hand and crouching while shooting with ranged weapons, provides zoom. Projectiles gain perfect accuracy and deal additional damage. Default cooldown time is 4 seconds.

Spotter - Pressing the attack key while observing through a spyglass summons an eye of ender that constantly marks creatures near the selected position. Requires direct line of sight and can detect invisible entities. Cooldown time is 1.4 times the active duration.

Configuration

Block display, entity display, and interface position can be configured in the client configuration. Cooldown times and enchantment parameters are configured in the server configuration.

Compatibility

With Jade mod installed, its overlay will be displayed instead of the built-in interface (configurable). Requires version 0.8.0+.

With Enchantment descriptions installed, details of each enchantment are displayed in the game.

Compatible with Spyglass improvements. Spyglass enchantments can be used when placed in the accessory slot. Requires Accessories/Accessories for version 1.21.1-0.7.0 or curios/trinkets for 1.20.1 and 0.8.0+.

The precision function can be compatible with ranged weapons from other mods starting from versions 1.21.1-0.7.0 or 0.8.0+. See details in the GitHub readme.
