<\/p>\n# Speedometer (1.17-1.21)<\/p>\n
A lightweight, compass-style **Speedometer** item that visually tracks your movement speed. As you move faster, the needle advances across **32 frames** and **caps at frame 31**.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## Features<\/p>\n
– **Real-time speed display** with a smooth **32-frame** needle animation (`00` \u2192 `31`)
\n– **Caps at max** (frame `31`) at high speeds
\n– **Lightweight + modder-friendly**: simple item + model predicate, minimal moving parts
\n– **Vanilla-friendly** behavior (regular utility item)<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## Crafting Recipe<\/p>\n
Crafted like a Compass, but with **Copper** and **Amethyst**:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
—
\n## Future Plans<\/p>\n
– ~~Backport to older versions, all the way back to 1.17 as that was the Amethyst and Copper release.~~
\n– Support for all mod loaders 1.17-1.21: ~~Fabric~~, ~~Forge~~, ~~NeoForge~~ & Quilt
\n– Backport to even older versions using different items (possibly gold & lapiz?) and changing the textures to them as well. (SPEEDOMETER CLASSIC)
\n– Add a HUD mode (optional on-screen gauge) + keybind to toggle (client-only).
\n– Add units toggle (m\/s, blocks\/sec, km\/h, mph) and show numeric speed in tooltip\/actionbar.
\n– Add a config for scaling\/cap (walking vs sprinting vs elytra), smoothing, and \u201cmax needle at X m\/s\u201d.
\n– Support vehicles (minecart\/boat\/horse) and optionally show mount speed instead of player velocity.
\n– Add sound\/visual feedback (subtle click\/tick at frame changes, optional).
\n– Add enchant\/upgrade ideas: \u201cOverclocked\u201d (higher cap).
\n– Add redstone integration: a \u201cSpeed Monitor\u201d block that outputs signal strength based on entity speed holding linked item.
\n– Add compat hooks (optional): trinket slot support, Curios\/Trinkets compatibility, and better vehicle speed via common – APIs when present.
\n– Add translation keys + language files for proper tooltips and item group name.
\n– Add data-driven frames so texture frame count and thresholds can be changed via resource packs\/datapacks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
