CombatSense

CombatSense is a lightweight client-side mod designed to make PvP and survival gameplay clearer and more intuitive - without turning the game into a cheat experience.

The mod does not modify combat mechanics, automate actions, or interact with the server. Instead, it visualizes information already available to the client to improve player awareness and reaction time.
