Tab+

Tab+

A client-side mod that replaces the vanilla Tab list with a polished, social-aware overlay. Works on any server — no server-side plugin required.

What’s new in v1.1

Ping sparklines — Each player now shows an 8-sample bar chart of recent latency history, colour-coded green / yellow / red. Spot lag spikes at a glance instead of just seeing the current number.

Session timers — See how long each player has been online this session (e.g. 5m, 1h12m). Resets on disconnect.

Sortable columns — Press R to cycle through sort modes: Default → Name A–Z → Ping ↑ → Session. Current sort is shown in the status bar.

Relationship tag grouping — Press G to group the list by tag — Friends first, then Allies, Rivals, Enemies, then everyone else. A separator line marks each group boundary.

Hover cards — Mouse over any player to see a popup with their tag, note, and session duration without needing to open their profile.

Full feature list

Numerical ping — Exact milliseconds instead of vague 1–5 bar icons.

Relationship tags — Mark players as Friend, Ally, Rival, or Enemy. Their name lights up in that tag’s colour.

Player notes — Write a short note on any player. Stored per server and per UUID, persists across sessions.

Live filter — Type while Tab is held to filter by name or tag.

Arrow key navigation — ↑ / ↓ to move a highlight through the list.
