This mod allows you to modify distance in which entities become visible!
It works on client and server, while not being required on either (aka vanilla clients/servers can still connect).
Ideal if you want to limit rendering distance of item frames, armor stands, and any other (including modded) entities.
You can modify options in Entity Distance Settings in Video Settings or through /entityviewdistance command.
This mod works only on Fabric Mod Loader with Fabric API or compatible!
