About this Mod

Spyglass Entity Distance

This mod extends the rendering distance of entities when using a spyglass, allowing players to see entities from much farther away than normal. It overrides server restrictions, forcing the server to send entity data beyond the typical range and enabling the client to render these distant entities when zoomed in. This effect only applies when actively using the spyglass, minimizing performance impact when not in use.
