Manta Manage

Are you tired of waiting five minutes over and over again just to see if the Giant Flying Manta(s) will clip through your factory? If so, then this mod is for you!

Features

Monitor the exact positions of the mantas on the HUD as a time between 0 and 5 minutes (this can be disabled in the mod configuration)
Teleport the mantas (and anyone riding them!) to a specific position using a chat command: `/manta <time>`

Multiplayer

The monitoring HUD is fully client-side and does not require the mod to be installed on the server.
The chat command is server-side and does not require the mod to be installed on clients.

Important Note: The server only replicates the mantas' positions to clients when they are nearby, meaning the server-side and client-side times are almost always out of sync. This is vanilla behavior, but becomes especially noticeable when teleporting the mantas with this mod.

To force the positions to synchronize, make sure you are nearby the position you plan to teleport the manta to when using the chat command.

Mod Compatibility

This mod is compatible with [Manta Raise](https://ficsit.app/mod/MantaRaise) and [Manta to Drone](https://ficsit.app/mod/MantaToDrone).

Additional Notes

The position of the HUD window can be adjusted via the translation values in the mod configuration.

It seems that the upper time displayed on the HUD is for the grass fields manta and the lower time is for the northern forest manta, but this is not explicitly defined and may change with future game updates.

Teleporting players riding the mantas in multiplayer has some... interesting consequences.
