What Makes This Special

The Magic Spy Glass represents a masterclass in addon design philosophy, addressing the common desire for x-ray vision while respecting Minecraft's core gameplay loop. SolvedDev's implementation cleverly sidesteps the problems of traditional x-ray packs by limiting visibility to structures rather than resources, preserving the excitement of ore discovery while eliminating tedious cave searching. The behavior pack requirement creates a consent-based system where server owners maintain control over their world's rules, preventing the griefing and unfair advantages that plague servers with client-side x-ray mods. This addon fills a genuine gameplay need for players who want to find interesting underground locations without spending hours mining blindly.

Pro Tips

• Walk slowly while using the spy glass to thoroughly scan for hidden structures
