How It Works

Better HP integrates seamlessly into the Minecraft GUI, replacing default health, armor, and hunger bars. By intercepting the rendering process, the mod provides a numerical display of health, armor, and hunger values. It also adapts to different status effects by changing text color to match the effect currently applied to your character.
