Obtaining the Information Stick

The Information Stick is the core tool of this mod. To get it, open your chat and type either /informationstick or /ist (the shorter alias works identically). The stick will appear in your inventory immediately.

Using the Stick to Inspect Entities

Once you have the Information Stick:

1. Equip it in your hand

2. Approach any entity (mobs, animals, players, minecarts, etc.)

3. Left-click (attack) the entity with the stick

4. Detailed information will display in your chat window

The stick doesn't damage entities or trigger any hostile behavior—it's purely a data-gathering tool. You can inspect the same entity multiple times to refresh the data. This works on both vanilla Minecraft entities and entities added by other mods.
