StatusEffectHUD Mechanics

The core functionality of StatusEffectHUD is to render a customizable display of active status effects on the screen. Each effect is typically shown with its corresponding icon, name, and remaining duration.

Key mechanical features include:

• Real-time Display: Effects are shown as they become active, updating dynamically as durations tick down
• Visual Consistency: The mod aims to match the aesthetic of the default potion effects display found in the inventory
• Dynamic Expansion: When multiple effects are active, the HUD intelligently expands to accommodate all of them, typically stacking vertically or horizontally depending on configuration
• Blinking Icons: A configurable option allows effect icons to blink when their duration is nearing its end, providing a visual warning to the player
• Inventory Integration: The mod offers an option to hide the default potion effects display from the inventory screen, preventing redundant information
• Beacon Effects: The HUD also accurately displays effects granted by beacons
