Create Track Map - Fork
by Radexin
Create Track Map - Fork shows a live map of the tracks, stations, signals and trains of a Create railway, served from the Minecraft server.
What it does
The mod draws a map of the Create railway in the world, including tracks, signals, stations and trains. Signal and train positions update in near real time, and the map is viewed in a browser through a small web server that the mod starts on the server. Players reach it with the server address and port 3876, with the IPv4 address written inside square brackets.
Because the web server listens on its own port, the host must allow a second port to be forwarded in addition to the Minecraft server port. Hosting services that do not support extra port forwarding cannot run the map, and players on a shared host need the provider to open the port. Settings are kept in create-track-map.json in the server's config directory, which is created on first startup, and the config can be reloaded without a restart by a server operator using the ctm reload command.
The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing it. It requires Create and Kotlin for Forge, and BlueMap is an optional dependency. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1, under the MIT License, and the source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Live railway map
Tracks, stations, signals and trains of the Create railway are drawn on a map that the browser refreshes as the network changes.
Built-in web server
The mod runs its own web server, so the map is viewed in a browser at the server address on port 3876.
Editable configuration
Options are stored in create-track-map.json in the server config directory and can be reloaded with a command, without restarting the server.

How it compares
Create: Track Map (UNOFFICIAL FORK) is a server-side only mod under the MIT License, open source, for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, so it covers more loaders and versions. Create: Trains On Trains is server-side only and open source too, but it is under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only and targets 1.20.1 on Forge and NeoForge, adding train features rather than a map.
