Description

📦 CubeSense — Sulfur Cube Behavior Preview

Know what a Sulfur Cube will do before you feed it.

CubeSense is a lightweight, client-side Fabric mod for Minecraft Java 26.2 that displays a clean, non-intrusive preview panel whenever you aim your crosshair at a Sulfur Cube while holding a block or item.

✨ Features

  • Target-Aware HUD: Automatically appears only when aiming directly at a Sulfur Cube. Disappears the moment you look away.
  • Instant Archetype Preview: Tells you the exact physical behavior the cube will take on before feeding it (e.g., BOUNCY, SLIDING, STICKY, EXPLOSIVE, HOT).
  • Data-Driven & Datapack Friendly: Reads directly from Minecraft 26.2's native #minecraft:sulfur_cube_archetype/* item tags. Any item added to vanilla archetype tags via custom datapacks will work automatically without mod updates.
  • Smart Edge-Case Handling:
    • Not Absorbable: Clearly flags items that cannot be fed to Sulfur Cubes.
    • Custom Archetypes: Identifies custom datapack items without making false guesses.
    • Vanilla Explosives: Correctly handles vanilla TNT's dedicated explosive behavior.
  • 100% Client-Side: No server installation required. You can join vanilla servers and multiplayer realms with full functionality.
  • Zero Bloat & Peak Performance: No background entity scanning, no network packets, and zero performance impact.

🔍 Honest Notes & Limitations

  • Client-Side Only: CubeSense provides visual feedback based on the item in your hand; it does not alter Sulfur Cube mechanics, physics, or server behavior.
  • Active Hand Only: CubeSense currently inspects the item held in your main hand.
  • Clean & Safe: Does not use invasive mixins or raw OpenGL calls, ensuring compatibility with modern rendering backends.
