This is another fairly simple utility mod, but it can serve a very useful purpose. PunchInfo was originally inspired by azekill_DIABLO's NodeExploror mod. However, NodeExplorer was missing several features, and since it wasn't on GitHub, I decided to start over from scratch.
The concept of PunchInfo is very simple, whenever a player left-clicks (i.e. punches) a node, information about that node is shown. This information includes the description, itemstring, top texture, light emission level, drawtype, and groups. The HUD is removed after 2 seconds (configurable in minetest.conf with punchnode.hud_show_time, integer).
If you find the HUD to be too big, it can be configured to one of three sizes in minetest.conf with punchnode.hud_size. The HUD size can be set to one of three integer, 1, 2, or 3 (2 is default).
The HUD can be managed and customized per-player with the /punchinfo command. This single command accepts several parameters, as seen below.
