BlueMap Visability Toggle - Fabric
by sovtomb
BlueMap Visability Toggle lets players hide or show their own position on a BlueMap live map, and the choice is kept across restarts.
What it does
Plain BlueMap shows every player's location on the live map, which raises privacy concerns on public servers. This Fabric addon gives each player control over whether they appear. Players switch their visibility with simple commands, and the server applies the saved choice again whenever BlueMap loads after a restart.
Installation is server-side only, so players join without installing anything. The server needs Fabric Loader and Fabric API. LuckPerms is optional, and with it admins decide which groups may use the commands by assigning permission nodes. The addon is published for Fabric across 12 release versions, 1.21 – 1.21.11, under the MIT License, and it is not open source.
Key features
Player visibility toggle
Players hide or show their own marker on the BlueMap live map using simple commands.
Saved choices
Each player's visibility preference is stored and applied automatically when the server starts.
Permission nodes
Three nodes cover hide, show and status checks, so admins can limit who uses the commands.
LuckPerms integration
Through the Fabric Permissions API, the nodes can be managed in LuckPerms for each group.

Use cases
Public servers
Server owners who run a public BlueMap can let players keep their home base or travel routes off the map.
Who it’s for: Server owners who run BlueMap and want players to decide whether their location appears on the live map. Admins who already manage permissions with LuckPerms can apply the nodes per group.
