Description from the author on Modrinth

Overview

Crosshair indicator works similarly to the Vanilla Attack Indicator by providing proper insight for attack eligibility.
This mod however conveys this information more visibly and accessibly by using the crosshair, no longer restricting this functionality to fully-charged attacks.
