Overflowing Bars expands Minecraft's health, armor, and armor toughness bars beyond vanilla while keeping them compact and easy to read. Instead of adding extra rows of icons, the mod stacks bars into clear layers that take up far less space. 📊
When your stats exceed vanilla limits, a row counter shows exactly how many layers of health, armor, or toughness you have. No memorizing color schemes or guessing which layer you're viewing. 🔢 Unlike many alternative HUD mods, it uses only a single highlight color for stacked layers.
The mod also adds a dedicated armor toughness bar, bringing an important defensive stat into the HUD that vanilla doesn't display. 🛡️ This is especially useful in heavily modded gameplay with high armor and toughness values.
