CompasUP
by Mrmathach
Across the top of the screen, CompasUP draws a compass strip that reports the player's heading in degrees.
What it does
The heading readout sits along the top edge of the screen and reports the direction the player faces in degrees. Only the client needs the mod, so servers run without it and players can join a server that does not have it installed. Builds exist for Fabric and NeoForge, with files for 1.21.1 and 1.21.11 under the Apache License 2.0, which is not open source.
Key features
Heading bar
A compass strip at the top of the screen keeps the current direction in view while walking or riding.
Degree readout
The bar shows the facing angle in degrees, measured relative to the player's position.
Groups of players
Groups playing military-themed games together can read headings the same way on their own clients.
