About this Mod
Player Locator Plus Reforged
Thanks to Mojang for the original idea, and thanks to SIT for porting to Fabric.
I do not claim to be the author of the mod, I made only a port on Forge.

Marker colors
Each player's color is determined randomly by their UUID. You cannot change your UUID (unless you're playing in offline mode); therefore, it's impossible to change your marker color.
Distance fade
When a player is very far away, their marker starts to fade
Disappearing
There are three ways to hide from the player locator:
- Crouching
- Wearing a carved pumpkin
- Having the invisibility effect
