Compatibility

The following are mods either tested to be compatible or not

Incompatible

• BetterSpec: This is already handled by EnhancedSpectator
• No others have been found/reported currently

Fully Compatible (Tested by me or the community)

• ShipLootPlus
• GeneralImprovements
• AdvancedCompany
• LCBetterClock
• EladsHUD
• Likely most mods (ill do a more comprehensive test with the most popular mods later)

Mostly Compatible (Everything is functional just has quirks)

• SpectateEnemies
  • The only part that doesn't work is when spectating a mob the night vision doesn't work (this seems to be a vanilla limitation, I am still investigating if I can change it)
• ToggleableNightVision
  • This works fine but when toggling night vision in either mod it will disable it for the other, so any text prompts wont be synced (I'll likely fix this in the future)

Configuration

Everything is configurable via the config file or the LethalConfig menu (both the main menu and the pause menu).

NOTE: With v1.0.4+ LethalConfig is a soft dependency but to get the best experience it is still required by the Thunderstore package. It allows you to change any setting for EnhancedSpectator at any time, and it will update everything in real time. If do not want LethalConfig in your pack, you can safely remove it and this mod will still work just fine.

Other Mods

v1.0.5

• Added compatibility for MelonLoader so EnhancedSpectator loads correctly if MelonLoader is present
• Aligned the code closer to my coding standards used in ShipLootPlus to be more consistent
• Changed how the flashlight enable/disable text is set, so any other mod with a spectator flash light doesn't cause text prompt sync issues
• Changed how the raised clock feature works, the spectating text object is now moved in a way that wont impact any mod that modifies the spectating text content
• Added a config option to tweak the spectating text Y position offset (can move it up or down with raised clock support if needed)
