Speedometer (1.17-1.21)

A lightweight, compass-style Speedometer item that visually tracks your movement speed. As you move faster, the needle advances across 32 frames and caps at frame 31.

Visual Animation of the Item.


Features

  • Real-time speed display with a smooth 32-frame needle animation (00 → 31)
  • Caps at max (frame 31) at high speeds
  • Lightweight + modder-friendly: simple item + model predicate, minimal moving parts
  • Vanilla-friendly behavior (regular utility item)

Crafting Recipe

Crafted like a Compass, but with Copper and Amethyst:

Future Plans

  • Backport to older versions, all the way back to 1.17 as that was the Amethyst and Copper release.
  • Support for all mod loaders 1.17-1.21: Fabric, Forge, NeoForge & Quilt
  • Backport to even older versions using different items (possibly gold & lapiz?) and changing the textures to them as well. (SPEEDOMETER CLASSIC)
  • Add a HUD mode (optional on-screen gauge) + keybind to toggle (client-only).
  • Add units toggle (m/s, blocks/sec, km/h, mph) and show numeric speed in tooltip/actionbar.
  • Add a config for scaling/cap (walking vs sprinting vs elytra), smoothing, and “max needle at X m/s”.
  • Support vehicles (minecart/boat/horse) and optionally show mount speed instead of player velocity.
  • Add sound/visual feedback (subtle click/tick at frame changes, optional).
  • Add enchant/upgrade ideas: “Overclocked” (higher cap).
  • Add redstone integration: a “Speed Monitor” block that outputs signal strength based on entity speed holding linked item.
  • Add compat hooks (optional): trinket slot support, Curios/Trinkets compatibility, and better vehicle speed via common - APIs when present.
  • Add translation keys + language files for proper tooltips and item group name.
  • Add data-driven frames so texture frame count and thresholds can be changed via resource packs/datapacks.
