**Spyglass of Curios**
**🔭💍👋🧐**

Overview This mod adds a Curios slot for spyglass. Now, you can friendly use spyglass in the spyglass slot with a key press. You can also adjust the magnification of the spyglass with the mouse scroll. In addition, each spyglass individually saves magnification information, which is displayed in the tooltip.

             

You can press shift+left-click to switch the render type of spyglass curio on player model, there are three types of renders can be selected.
This mod aims to serve as a functional alternative to some mods with inherent magnification features, in order to balance the acquisition of magnification and achieve a more immersive gaming experience.

Configuration There are many rich configurations for you to choose from, such as whether to render the spyglass model, setting the maximum and minimum magnification of the spyglass, disabling information display, and so on.
It’s worth mentioning that you can enable the OPTIFINE-like cinematic camera in the configuration when the spyglass is activated.

Compatibility This mod strives to be as compatible as possible with most mainstream mods, so that it can work normally in most mod packs. Therefore, if you find some compatibility issues with other mods, or someplace where uses awkwardly, please tell me in the issues, and I will try my best to correct it to a satisfactory state~
