DetectorUAV — UAV proximity detector for Forge 1.20.1

A lightweight client-friendly mod that adds a handheld UAV detector with a minimal HUD (bottom-right), a custom beep, and server-controlled scan range. Works even from the inventory when switched ON, lists nearby drones with their current names (updates when Superb Warfare renames a linked drone) and shows an approximate distance. The beep triggers only for the closest UAV.

✨ Features

Item-based detector (toggle ON/OFF via right-click; state saved in NBT).

HUD in the bottom-right corner: compact bar + list (up to 5) with name and ≈distance (doesn’t clutter the UI).

Beep only for the nearest UAV; pitch/interval scale with distance.

Works from inventory: if the detector item is ON anywhere in your inventory, tracking & HUD work.

Superb Warfare support: reads the display name each tick, so when SBW renames a linked drone, the HUD shows the updated name automatically.

Server-controlled radius (authoritative): synced to clients on join and when reloaded.

Client-only customization: volume, pitch range, beep period, HUD list size.

Custom sound (drone_detector:detector_beep) with subtitles.

Extensible target list via a data tag.

? Requirements

Minecraft: 1.20.1

Forge: 47.2.x

(Optional) Superb Warfare (for UAV entities to detect)

? Installation

Put the mod on both client and server (for MP).

Launch once to generate configs.

(Optional) Add/adjust UAV entity types via the tag (see below).

⚙️ Configuration

Server (authoritative gameplay settings)
serverconfig/drone_detector-server.toml

[detector]

Scan radius in meters

range = 64.0

Client (HUD & audio only)
config/drone_detector-client.toml

[audio]
onlyNearestBeep = true
beepMinPeriod = 6
beepMaxPeriod = 40
beepVolume = 0.8
beepPitchMinFar = 0.7
beepPitchMaxNear = 1.8

[hud]
enabled = true
listCount = 5

(HUD is bottom-right by design to keep UI clean)

? Custom beep sound

The mod registers drone_detector:detector_beep.

File layout

assets/drone_detector/sounds.json
assets/drone_detector/sounds/detector_beep.ogg
assets/drone_detector/lang/en_us.json
assets/drone_detector/lang/ru_ru.json

sounds.json

{
"detector_beep": {
"subtitle": "subtitles.drone_detector.detector_beep",
"sounds": [{ "name": "drone_detector:detector_beep", "stream": false }]
}
}

Want to swap the beep without rebuilding? Use a resource pack overriding the same path.

? What counts as a UAV

By default the mod targets Superb Warfare drones and anything in the entity type tag below. Extend it with datapacks to include your own entities:

data/drone_detector/tags/entity_types/drone_targets.json

{
"replace": false,
"values": [
"sbw:fpv_drone",
"sbw:swarm_drone",
"superbwarfare:fpv_drone"
]
}

?️ How to use

Craft/spawn the UAV Detector item.

Right-click to toggle ON/OFF.

Keep it in hand or anywhere in inventory (if ON) to activate HUD + beeps.

Approach drones: the bar fills as you get closer; the list shows current names and ≈distance.

? Multiplayer & Sync

The server sets the scan radius; clients receive it on login and after server config reloads.

Clients control only HUD & audio.

?️ Localization

en_us, ru_ru included (subtitles & item strings).

? Compatibility

Designed for Forge 1.20.1.

Works alongside Superb Warfare; recognizes linked drone name changes automatically.

? Known Issues / Notes

If your custom UAV type isn’t detected, add its entity type to the drone_targets tag.

Excessively large server radius may slightly increase client scanning costs (default is safe)
