📋 About This Mod
This mod displays a message on the top left hand corner of the screen whenever you are in combat. It doesn\'t interrupt gameplay and serves as a nice warning when somethng targets you and you can\'t hear the combat music, so you can be ready instead of getting hit from behind unaware. The only bug I know of is if you run into a creature that runs away from you when it detects you like a deer the message will flash on your screen for a second even though you\'re not really in combat, but it\'s nothing big. This is my first serious mod, made after getting annoyed by being caught unaware by an enemy one too many times when my wireless headphones ran out of charge. Randomly decided to release it one day. Mod shouldn\'t have any conflicts with anything but notify me if it does. Thanks to the people here that helped me get started and showed me how to do this.
Silent Combat Warning is a lightweight combat indicator for players who play without sound. It provides a visual alert when combat begins, making it useful for deaf players or those who mute the game. With 36 endorsements and 600 downloads, it's a niche but appreciated utility.
