Floating Damage Indicators

# Floating Damage Indicators Floating damage numbers above every target you hit, and your own incoming damage too — color-coded by damage type. Fully configurable. > **Note:** FDI must be installed on both the server and client for multiplayer servers. <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dbtdewiqk/image/upload/v1782936767/hit_is51d7.jpg" alt="Floating Damage Indicators: hits" width="900"> <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dbtdewiqk/image/upload/v1782936767/effect_xpc4w8.jpg" alt="Floating Damage Indicators: effects" width="900"> <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dbtdewiqk/image/upload/v1783148317/projectile_instant_s4i0xq.jpg" alt="Floating Damage Indicators: projectiles & instant kill" width="900"> --- ## ⚡ Features - Floating damage numbers above any entity you hit - See your own incoming damage too - Color-coded by damage type. - Configurable — choose which numbers show up. - Works in both singleplayer and dedicated multiplayer. | Type | Icon | Color | Example | |--------------|----------------|------------|------------------------------| | NORMAL | — | Red | Normal hit | | CRITICAL | ✦ | Gold | Jump crit | | PROJECTILE | ➵ | Cyan | Arrow, trident | | FIRE | ♨ | Orange | Fire Aspect | | POISON | ⚗ | Green | Poison | | WITHER | ☠ | Dark gray | Wither effect | | RECEIVING | — | Light gray | Damage you take | | INSTANT_KILL | ⚡ INSTANT KILL | Gold | Kill an enemy in one hit | --- ## ⚙️ Configuration After launching the game once, a configuration file will be generated: ``` config/floatingdamageindicators.json ``` Available options: > **Note:** The `formats` section is **client-side only** — the server only reads `showDamage`, `showReceivedDamage`, and `INSTANT_KILL`'s `enabled`. To customize prefixes, colors, or `showDamage`, edit the config file **on your client**. > > **Tip:** Some Unicode characters or emojis may not display correctly depending on your Minecraft font. If a character shows as a blank square, try a different one. Stick to basic Unicode symbols for best results. > > **Tip:** Colors must be 6-digit hex (RRGGBB). Invalid values like `"ZZZ123"` or `"FF"` will silently fall back to the default for that damage type. ``` { "showDamage": true, "showReceivedDamage": true, "formats": { "NORMAL": { "enabled": true, "prefix": "", "color": "FF3333", "showDamage": true }, "CRITICAL": { "enabled": true, "prefix": "\u2726", "color": "FFD700", "showDamage": true }, "PROJECTILE": { "enabled": true, "prefix": "\u27B5", "color": "00FFFF", "showDamage": true }, "FIRE": { "enabled": true, "prefix": "\u2668", "color": "FF6600", "showDamage": true }, "POISON": { "enabled": true, "prefix": "\u2697", "color": "4A9E2F", "showDamage": true }, "WITHER": { "enabled": true, "prefix": "\u2620", "color": "3C3C3C", "showDamage": true }, "RECEIVING": { "enabled": true, "prefix": "(You) ", "color": "AAAAAA", "showDamage": true }, "INSTANT_KILL": { "enabled": true, "prefix": "\u26A1 INSTANT KILL", "color": "FFD700", "showDamage": false } } } ``` Each format entry: - **enabled** — show/hide this damage type entirely - **prefix** — custom text shown before (or instead of) the number - **color** — 6-digit hex color (RGB) - **showDamage** — if false, only the prefix is shown (no damage number) --- ## 📦 Requirements ### Fabric - Fabric API - (+26.X) Java 25 or newer ### NeoForge - (+26.X) Java 25 or newer --- ## 📜 License This project is licensed under the MIT License.
