Evil Eye – EvilCraft Addon

By default, EvilCraft spawns Vengeance Spirits globally as long as the mod is installed — whether anyone actually wants to interact with them or not. This addon changes that behavior.

Instead, Vengeance Spirits will only spawn when a player wearing the Evil Eye is nearby. No monocle, no spirits.

This keeps the mechanic opt-in, reduces unnecessary entities, and prevents those mysterious floating health bars that appear when entity-overlay mods notice something you can’t even see.

In short:

Vengeance spirit only appears when someone explicitly asks for it
Fewer idle entities doing nothing in the background
No random health bars haunting your screen
Modpack authors get control without disabling EvilCraft features entirely

Minimal. Targeted. Politely judgmental.

Note: This mod was created primarily for our modpack Creatopia Unbound, but it’s free to use in any pack.

Features

Curios integration

Adds a custom Curios slot: Monocle
The Evil Eye equips into this slot
Renders visibly on the player’s face
Position, rotation, and scale are configurable

Vengeance Spirit spawn gating

EvilCraft still attempts to spawn Vengeance Spirits as usual, but this addon steps in before they appear:

Condition	Result
Player wearing the Evil Eye is nearby	Spirit spawns normally
No wearer in range	Spawn is blocked

The search radius is configurable.

This means EvilCraft can remain installed without constantly creating invisible or unwanted entities.

Client-side render tuning

Fine-tune how the monocle sits on your character:

X / Y / Z offsets
Scale
Rotation per axis

Useful for different skins or model proportions.

How it works

EvilCraft attempts to create a Vengeance Spirit
This addon intercepts the spawn attempt
Nearby players are scanned for the Evil Eye
Outcome:

Wearer found → spawn allowed
No wearer → spawn denied

EvilCraft’s internal logic stays untouched; only the final spawn decision is gated.

Configs are generated after first launch.
