How to Inspect Block and Mob NBT Data

You can inspect the hidden data of world objects and entities in real time using the built-in NBT viewer and block overlay.

Viewing and Saving NBT Data

1. Ensure you have bound the NBT viewer key in Options > Controls under the Gameplay section.

2. Aim your crosshair directly at a block (such as a chest) or an entity (such as a mob).

3. Press your NBT viewer key.

4. A window will display the target's hidden NBT tags.

5. Use the on-screen options to read the specific data tags or save the NBT data directly for future reference.

Using the Block Info Overlay

While moving around your world, the mod provides instant identification of blocks:

• Look at any block within reach of your crosshair.
• A small box will appear at the top of your screen displaying both the name and the picture of the targeted block.
• If you prefer not to see this information box, you can turn it off by setting show_block_overlay to false in editor_config.json.
