PingIt
by DomixCZE
PingIt lets players mark danger points and places of interest with clean, unobtrusive icons that other players can see on a shared map.
What it does
A ping is a marker placed at a location and shown with an icon. PingIt offers a menu of different pings, opened by holding R, and a quick ping that is placed by pressing R once. Each ping can be customized separately, including its colors, icons and sounds, and the customization applies to the player who sets it. Pings are seen through walls within a distance limit of 256 blocks and disappear after 5 seconds.
The mod is lightweight and built for both singleplayer and multiplayer play. Its icons are meant to communicate danger and interest quickly without covering the screen. PingIt supports several languages and can be included in modpacks. Its resource pack and add-on content may be redistributed by modpack makers. Installation requires Cloth Config API and Fabric API alongside PingIt on Fabric, and the mod runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric only, for version 1.21.1, under All rights reserved, and the source code is publicly available.
