Find My Blimp
by holy_buckets
Find My Blimp lets players mark waypoints on Aeronautics vehicles built with Create contraptions, using a right-click with Create Engineer's Goggles.
What it does
A waypoint is placed by right-clicking a vehicle with the goggles equipped, and it stays attached to the vehicle as it moves. Right-clicking again with the goggles in hand removes the marker. Waypoints can be shown always, only while wearing the goggles, only while crouching, or only while wearing the goggles and crouching.
The mod targets NeoForge for 1.21.1 and needs Balm, Create and HB's Foundation to run. Create, the contraption system it builds on, is required, so a server running Find My Blimp also runs Create. The code is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and the source code is public. The server and every player need the mod installed.
Key features
Waypoints on vehicles
Set a waypoint on an Aeronautics vehicle with a right-click and the marker travels with the vehicle.
Visibility modes
Choose whether waypoints show always, only while wearing goggles, only while crouching, or both.
Survives rebuilding
When a vehicle is deconstructed and rebuilt in the same spot, its waypoint is restored and stays visible for a few seconds.
HB's Find Blimp
The in-game waypoint system is named HB's Find Blimp in the mod's configuration and interface.
