Clean HotBar [B42]

Enhance Your Project Zomboid Interface with Clean Hot Bar [B42]

Navigating the harsh realities of Project Zomboid just got a whole lot smoother. The Clean Hot Bar [B42] mod offers a significant overhaul to the game’s hotbar and hand-equipped item displays, prioritizing clarity, readability, and a more intuitive user experience. This modification is designed to seamlessly integrate with Build 42 of Project Zomboid, making crucial information readily accessible without cluttering your screen.

Improved Status Readability

This mod breathes new life into the hotbar by making item status easier to interpret at a glance. Whether you’re in the heat of a zombie encounter or meticulously managing your inventory, Clean Hot Bar ensures you have the information you need. Key enhancements include:

• Weapon Condition at a Glance: Easily monitor your weapon’s head condition with a clear status bar.
• Sharpness Values: See both current and maximum sharpness for your melee weapons, with color-coded indicators for quick comprehension.
• Toggleable Item Indicators: Receive clear ON/OFF signals for items like flashlights, so you always know their status.
• Ammo Count Display: Keep track of your ammunition with an integrated counter directly above firearm slots.

Refined Hand-Equipped and Liquid Displays

Beyond the hotbar, the UI for hand-equipped items has been significantly improved. Original textures are refined for a less obstructive appearance, while the new B42 liquid system is visualized with color-coded bars. This makes identifying the contents and remaining quantity of liquids in containers effortless.

Engaging Visual Feedback

Clean Hot Bar [B42] also introduces subtle yet effective animation effects to provide dynamic feedback. Items will now subtly shake when their durability decreases, and flashing effects highlight durability value changes. Liquid consumption is met with smooth animation, and a customizable warning appears above your character’s head when a weapon’s durability drops, ensuring you’re always aware of your gear’s condition.

Customization and Convenience

Understanding that every survivor plays differently, the mod offers a range of customizable settings. Adjust status bar height, enable tooltips for detailed item information on hover, scale the hotbar size, and toggle various visual warnings. A standout feature is the built-in hotbar reordering functionality, accessible directly from the settings panel, which eliminates the need for separate hotbar reordering mods.
