CrosshairDist answers a question the vanilla game never quite does: how far away is the thing I'm pointing at? While you aim at a block or entity within reach, a small line under your crosshair shows the kind ("Block" or "Entity") plus the exact distance from your eyes, to two decimal places.

What it shows

• Block 4.50m — when the crosshair hits a block face. Green text.
• Entity 3.56m — when the crosshair hits a mob, animal, or other player. Orange text.
• Nothing when you're aiming at empty space — no clutter when there's nothing to measure.

The distance is the straight-line distance from your eye position to the exact ray-hit point, so leaning closer or backing off updates the readout smoothly.

What it's good for

• Builders — pillar height, gap width, bridge spans, redstone alignment ranges.
• Archers — judge arrow drop at exact ranges instead of guessing.
• Map makers — pick precise camera angles and document scenes.

How it works

• Reads MinecraftClient.crosshairTarget every frame and computes the distance from your eyes to the hit point.
• Drawn via Fabric's HudRenderCallback — respects F1 (hide HUD), pause menus, and inventory screens automatically.
• No mixins, no server traffic. Fully client-side.

Controls

• J — toggle the readout on / off (default: on)

Compatibility
