SparrowVision NVG 🕶️
Night vision for people who actually play in the dark. A pair of craftable, repairable, intelligent goggles for Minecraft Bedrock — no gamma boost, no glow spam, no weird gestures.
⚡ Why not just raise brightness?
Most "night vision" add-ons fake it: they crush your gamma to max, and suddenly every torch is the sun and every lava pool is a flashbang. SparrowVision doesn't fake light — it emits it. An invisible dynamic light block (level 14) travels with you in darkness, so torches stay torches and lava stays lava. Your eyes will thank you.
✨ Features
- 🌑 True color night vision — no green tint, quietly refreshed so it never flickers.
- 🤖 Automatic light sensor — the goggles deploy alone in the dark and fold above your forehead with direct sunlight (>65%) or strong artificial light (≥90%). Double-confirmed decision windows = zero flicker.
- 🎛️ Nothing manual — no sneaking twice, no dancing, no gestures. Other add-ons using sneak-menus will never collide with it.
- 🔦 Dynamic light that follows you (configurable in
BP/scripts/main.js). - 🔍 Pickaxe zoom — hold any pickaxe and tap clear air (point into a space 5–10 blocks away) for a smooth 1.5 s camera-zoom transition. Switch items and it folds back automatically. Only pickaxes respond, so it won't fight your other add-ons (perspective mods, gesture packs…).
- ⛏️ Ore scanner — while zooming, special ores within 48 blocks get a green sparkle bracket (up to 6 blocks of the vein) with mineral name + distance: diamond, emerald, redstone, lapis lazuli, coal, iron, gold, nether gold, quartz, ancient debris (incl. deepslate).
- 💚 Emissive green dot on each lens — visible to other players, lightning-fast stylish.
- 🌐 ES/EN messages (es-ES, es-MX, es-US, en-US).
🧪 How to craft (survival-ready, ~3 days of early game)
Pattern (crafting table — unlocks when you get an iron ingot):
iron | glass | iron
iron | lapis lazuli | iron
redstone | redstone torch | redstone
🔧 How to repair
When durability runs low: one emerald on each side of the goggles on a crafting table. The repair recipe unlocks when you own the goggles, so the recipe book shows the crafting recipe first. Durability 165 · Armor +1 · kept when folding/unfolding.
⚙️ For tinkerers
Everything is a documented const in BP/scripts/main.js (comments in Spanish): light thresholds, anti-flicker windows, zoom FOV (30), ease times, zoom distance window, tool whitelist (["pickaxe"]), ore scan range… tweak freely.
❓ FAQ
- Experimental toggles? None required. Script module:
@minecraft/server2.9.0 stable APIs. - Conflicts with my other add-ons? No: no sneak gestures, no shared item triggers, no brightness hacks.
- Lag? The main loop runs every 4 ticks, the ore scanner only fires while zooming. Featherweight.
- Multiplayer? Works; per-player state, deploys/scans are local events.
- Versions? Requires Minecraft Bedrock 26.40+ (uses
@minecraft/server2.9.0 stable APIs). Tested on 26.50.

🇪🇸 Resumen en español
Gafas de visión nocturna de verdad para Bedrock: sensor de luz automático (se despliegan solas en la oscuridad), luz dinámica real que te sigue — sin el truco barato de subir el brillo que vuelve nucleares antorchas y lava —, zoom con pico (toca el aire despejado a 5–10 bloques) y escáner de minerales con nombre y distancia hasta 48 bloques. Crafteables con hierro/vidrio/lapis/redstone; se reparan con esmeraldas. Botones, textos y comentarios en español. Compatible con otros add-ons (sin sneaks ni gestos). Requiere Bedrock 26.40+.
