  • The minimap shows all chunks that are currently rendered.
  • The player's location is represented by a green beacon beam marker on the map.
• Will make a sound when equipped.
• Displays vision overlay (similar to the pumpkin overlay).
  • The overlay will change to a new overlay if you go into third person (unlike the pumpkin overlay), making the screen appear like an old television screen.
  • The overlay is called cantseeshitcaptain.png in the assets folder.
• Activates shader when equipped (scan_pincushion).
• Signs display the text "OBEY" while glasses are equipped, a reference to the movie They Live.

• Gives the player Slowness I effect when equipped.
• If the player moves too far from the world spawn at nighttime, it will display the text "CURFEW WARNING! You are violating your house arrest! Get back by X meters!" (where X is the distance).
• When player travels to another dimension, it displays various messages from the monitor, in a special order.

Changes

    • However, endermen with reality vision will still attack when looked at.

Signs

• Signs have a different unique texture.
• Sign text is now green.
• Signs read "OBEY" while reality shades are equipped. This is a reference to the movie They Live.

Trivia

• The update was released before April 1st by the developers.
• The overlay for the reality vision in the assets folder, cantseeshitcaptain.png, is a reference to a popular meme from the TV show "Star Trek".
• The shader for the reality vision can be disabled by using F4.
  • However, when you go in third person view, the shader is activated again.
