Damage Indicator Addon FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

Does using the Damage Indicator Addon disable achievements?
No, this addon functions purely as a resource pack. Because it does not require behavior packs or experimental toggles to run, your world remains completely achievement-friendly.
How do I change the health display between the bar and heart icons?
Open your Resource Packs settings, click on the active Damage Indicator pack, and select the gear icon to open its subpacks menu. From there, you can toggle between the Health Bar, the Heart Icon, or the Combination style that displays both.
Why isn't the custom Minecraft or Dungeons font showing up in-game?
For the custom font pack to work properly, it must have higher priority than the main indicator pack. Go to your active resource packs list and move the font pack directly on top of the Damage Indicator Addon.
What do the different colors on the health bar mean?
The health bar changes color based on the target's remaining health percentage. It stays green when the entity is between 50% and 100% HP, turns yellow from 25% to 49% HP, and drops to red when health is between 1% and 24%.
Why did my weapon deal less damage on the final hit that killed the mob?
The addon calculates damage by tracking the entity's health loss rather than reading your weapon's raw attack value. If your attack is stronger than the mob's remaining health, the popup will only display the exact amount of HP the mob had left before dying.
Why does the damage popup cap at 100 even when I deal more damage?
The visual damage indicator has a hard display limit of 100 per hit. Even if an attack inflicts more than 100 points of damage at once, the floating number will only ever read "100".
What is the maximum health the indicator can track on high-HP mobs?
When using the Heart Icon or the Combination (Heart + Health Bar) display styles, the indicator can accurately read up to 999 HP. Any health values beyond that threshold will not be tracked higher on the counter.
Why can't I see the health bar on mobs that are far away?
To keep the screen clean and maintain performance, the indicators have a maximum render distance of 20 blocks. You must move within 20 blocks of an entity for its health bar and damage numbers to appear.
Can other players see my health bar if I drink an Invisibility potion?
No, the indicator is designed to automatically vanish whenever an entity becomes invisible. Your location will not be given away by a floating health bar while under the effects of invisibility.
Does the addon show when an enemy heals itself?
Yes, in addition to tracking damage dealt, the addon actively monitors health regeneration. Whenever a mob or player recovers health, a popup will appear showing the exact heal amount.
