Clean Ping Display

## How laggy is it, really?

Vanilla's Tab list shows ping as five little bars. Is 4 bars 50ms or 140ms? Is your friend lagging, or is it you?

**Clean Ping Display** replaces the bars with the actual number, colored so you can read it in a second.

## Features

- **Real ping numbers** - "42ms" next to every player in the Tab list.
- **Color coded** - green under 100ms, yellow under 200ms, orange under 400ms, red above (adjustable).
- **Clean fit** - the Tab list columns get just wide enough for the numbers; names aren't covered.
- **"?"** for players whose ping the server hasn't reported yet.
- **Works with everything else in the Tab list** - heads, teams, scoreboard objectives.

No key bindings - just hold Tab as usual.

## Settings

The file `config/cleanpingdisplay.properties` is created on first launch:

- `enabled` - show numbers instead of bars (default: true)
- `showMsSuffix` - "42ms" or just "42" (default: true)
- `colors` - colored numbers (default: true)
- `greenBelow` / `yellowBelow` / `orangeBelow` - color limits in ms (default: 100 / 200 / 400)

## Works on servers

This is a **client-side only** mod. The server already sends every player's ping to everyone (that's what the bars are made from); this mod only shows the number. Works on any multiplayer server and on Realms.

## Honest limitations

- The ping is the value the server reports, which it updates every few seconds - not a live measurement.
- In singleplayer everyone (you) shows 0ms.
- Servers or plugins that send fake ping values will show those values.
- The settings are in a config file; there is no in-game settings screen yet.
