Frequently asked questions

How do I open the scrollable player list?
Hold the Tab key as you normally would to view the player list, then use your mouse scroll wheel or the arrow keys to scroll through it while Tab is held. The list stays open and scrolls instead of cutting off, so you can keep holding Tab and move through every player.
Why can't I scroll the player list with my mouse wheel?
Scrolling only works while the player list is actively shown, so you must keep Tab held down. If you release Tab the list closes and the scroll position resets, so hold Tab and scroll at the same time.
How do I see the ping number instead of the bars?
The mod replaces the default signal bars with a numerical ping value automatically once installed, so there is nothing to toggle in most setups. If you still see bars, check that another mod or resource pack is not overriding the player list rendering.
What do the ping numbers mean and what's a good value?
The number is your measured round-trip latency to the server in milliseconds, so lower is better. A low value means a responsive connection, while a high value means noticeable delay, and the exact thresholds depend on the server and your network.
