Accelerometer

Introduction

This is a pretty simple mod which adds a readout of your current acceleration to your HUD. It is designed for use along another of my mods, Deadly Acceleration, but can be used standalone.

Features

  • Displays your angular + linear acceleration as text alongside the vanilla HUD
  • Metric (m/s²) or GForce (g) unit display
  • That’s it

Multiplayer

Tested in hosted and dedicated multiplayer.

Configuration

These options can be edited through the TextHudAPI menu. They persist across all worlds and servers and are tied to each player.

  • Position: Has X and Y values. These govern the position on the screen of the display. -0.64, -0.64 is the default
  • Unit: Can be GForce or Metric. Metric is default
  • Autohide: Whether to hide the display when acceleration is 0. Defaults to true
