About this Mod

RespawnAnchorHUD is a clean look-at info layer for your nether base. Point your crosshair at any respawn anchor and a small readout appears in the top-left of your screen:

Charges: 0-4 / 4 - the anchor's exact charge level
Usable spawn point - when it has at least one charge
Uncharged (charge with glowstone) - when it's empty and won't set your spawn

Why

Vanilla only hints at a respawn anchor's charge through faint glowing layers on the block - hard to count at a glance, especially in dim nether lighting. RespawnAnchorHUD puts the precise charge count on screen so you instantly know whether your anchor is ready to set spawn, or how much glowstone it still needs, without right-clicking and risking an accidental respawn-point change.

Details

Pure client-side info HUD - reads the anchor's vanilla block state only. No mixins, no block entities, no gameplay changes.
Toggle the HUD on/off with R.
Works on Minecraft 1.21.8 - 1.21.11 (Fabric).
