Hiding Timers for Ambient Status Effects
In Minecraft, ambient status effects are continuous buffs applied by environmental sources, such as active Beacons or Conduits. Because these effects constantly refresh as long as you remain in range, countdown timers on them can clutter the screen.
Cleaning Up the Effect HUD
You can configure the mod to treat temporary potion effects and ambient beacon effects differently.
1. Open the pause menu and navigate to the configuration screen for Effect Timer Plus Mod.
2. Look for the display settings regarding ambient effects.
3. Locate the toggle labeled for hiding the timer on ambient effects.
4. Switch this option to enabled and apply your changes.
Verifying Display Behavior
Once enabled, check your HUD while standing near an active beacon or conduit:
- Temporary effects (such as potions, golden apples, or mob attacks) will continue to show their potency indicators and ticking countdown overlays.
- Ambient effects will display cleanly as icons without an unnecessary countdown timer overlaying the graphic, keeping your interface clear of repeating timers.
