Silence

A lightweight Fabric mod for Minecraft that allows players to silence noisy entities using renamed Name Tags.

Features

• Simple Silencing: Stop any entity from making noise by interacting with it using a specifically named Name Tag.
• Visual Feedback: Silenced entities that didn't previously have a custom name will be renamed to "Silenced" (with their name tag visible) to indicate they are muted.
• Prevent Redundancy: Provides on-screen feedback if you try to silence an entity that is already silent.

How to Use

1. Obtain a Name Tag.
2. Use an Anvil to rename the Name Tag to one of the following (case-insensitive):
   • silence
   • silent
   • silence_me
   • silence me

• Right-click the entity you wish to silence with the renamed Name Tag.

The entity will no longer produce sounds, making it perfect for loud farm animals or villagers near your base!
