Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on the status effect duration bars?
The bars appear automatically once the mod is installed — there's nothing to enable in-game. Just drink a potion or stand near a beacon and the bars will show up under your effect icons and in your inventory.
Why aren't the bars showing up on my effect icons?
Make sure you actually have an active status effect; the bars only render alongside effects that are currently applied. If you're using other HUD mods, they may be drawing over the effect icons and hiding the bars.
Do the bars show up in my inventory too?
Yes. The mod adds duration bars both to the effect icons in the top-right of your screen and to the effect list shown next to your inventory tab.
What do the bars actually represent?
Each bar fills or drains to reflect how much time is left on that specific effect relative to its total duration. A nearly empty bar means the effect is about to expire.
