Damage Indicator | Health Visibility Utility

---

Damage Indicator YS is a lightweight vanilla Minecraft datapack that shows a clean red bossbar for your current target.

Instead of filling the screen with floating health text over every nearby mob, Damage Indicator YS focuses only on the entity you are actively looking at. The goal is simple: readable health feedback without cluttering the vanilla Minecraft experience.

Focus Mode Design

Damage Indicator YS is designed as a low-clutter alternative to floating health text datapacks.

Some health display packs show information over every nearby entity. This datapack takes a cleaner approach by only showing information for your current target. That makes it useful for survival worlds, combat, servers, and players who want health feedback without turning the screen into a wall of numbers.
