CompassFindings
CompassFindings puts a small compass in the top-left corner of the HUD, with a spawn mode and a player-tracking mode that can be switched with a key combination.
What it does
Its HUD compass stays visible in the top-left corner. In spawn mode the needle points at the world spawn. In player mode the compass shows separate indicators for nearby players and for players pinned with a track command, along with the direction and distance to each. Switching between modes takes one key combination, and the active mode appears briefly on the action bar each time it changes.
The compass works on the client alone, so a player can use it on a multiplayer server without the server running anything. Tracking lists can be added to, removed from or cleared, and clearing the list returns the mod to automatic detection of players in the loaded chunks. The mod is published for Fabric only, with one file for 1.21.10, dated 2026-05-30, under the MIT License, and it is open source.
