About this Mod
A Client-Side mod for Hypixel Skyblock that highlights the area where a Trapper Animal could be, based on the height and angle the Theodolite tells us.
DISCLAIMER:
The accuracy of the mod varies. This is because in the message you get from the Theodolite, all values are rounded to a multiple of 5. You could be one block below an Animal and it would tell you that the mob is 5 blocks above.
You can counteract this by setting the angle and height margins to 2.5, but it would highlight a much larger area as a result.
Features
- Highlights a circular area when using the Theodolite, red circle for center, green circles for margin of error
- Circles get removed when the Animal is killed (or when you leave the lobby/server)
- Config
- currently only changeable in the JSON file... (within the standard MC config folder)
- That's it for now...
Planned
- Config Menu
- Fancy Shapes
Issues
- There is an Issue while using Shaders using the Iris mod which prevents the rendering of... anything, really. From what I can read on the Iris Docs, this is unfixable.
- You can use Shaders perfectly fine, but you will need to turn them off to see anything drawn by this mod
