Entity Overlays

Position and type of Entities can be highlighted with colored circles.

Available categories and their main color code are determined by the Entity definition file. For vanilla Minecraft these categories are defined:

• Hostile - everything that attacks the Player (despawning)
• Passive - harmless and Mobs that attack the Player only when attacked (not despawning)
• Others - eyerything else, mostely decorative stuff
• Items - Items laying on the ground waiting for despawning

The inner color defines the category and the outer color ring the type of Mob. As example, a white circle with pink border is a Pig, with a yellow border a chicken. A red circle with a green border is a Zombie, Creeper or Slime based on the exact tone of the green border.

You will get a tool tip explanation in the bottom status bar also when hovering your mouse pionter over the circles.
