AuraTip provides four different implementation methods: Datapacks, KubeJS, Java, and Visual editing (runs in the browser, requires KubeJS/NekoJS to be installed, and can be opened by entering /auratip editor in-game). It caters to different skill levels with simple syntax and cross-compatibility between methods.
Note: Datapack functionality is limited; it can only create components but cannot determine when they are displayed. Datapack-defined components act as objects to be manipulated and cannot interfere with other implementation methods.
Key Features
Tips
If you have played newer versions of the The Winter Rescue: Frosted Heart modpack, this will feel very familiar.
Supported features:
- Entrance and exit animations
- Hover animations
- Gradient, solid color, or image backgrounds
- Theme colors and sidebars
- Titles, subtitles, body text, and images
- Multi-page content and paging behavior
Example:
All tips are closed by pressing the DELETE key by default, though each tip can be assigned a custom closing key.
Radial Menus
While many radial menu mods exist, our extensibility is beyond your imagination!
Supported features:
- Dynamically add slots with adaptive grouping
- Slot icons
- Text descriptions
- Hover highlight gradient colors
- Highly customizable trigger actions
Radial Menu Actions
By default, AuraTip provides a built-in action for executing commands.
However, the action system is fully extensible.
Possible use cases include:
- Opening GUIs
- Triggering custom scripts
- Running client-side or server-side logic
- Sending packets
- Integrating with other mods
- Context-sensitive behaviors
This means radial menus are not limited to simple command shortcuts; they can function as highly customizable interaction systems for modpacks and gameplay mechanics.
How can I contribute to AuraTip?
You can find the source code on GitHub. We welcome feedback and contributions!
Nothing will happen immediately after adding this mod. The following documentation will teach you how to create your own tips and radial menus:
Both documents are written based on the Java API.
If you want to try JSON first, please open the visual editor; hand-writing JSON is not recommended.
If you prefer writing KubeJS, each segment of Java code is followed by a KubeJS equivalent for reference. Please excuse the lack of more detailed KubeJS-specific documentation.
