rtcompass
by righttwixy
rtcompass puts a configurable HUD compass on screen, inspired by the compass in the game Squad, for players who want heading information while they move.
What it does
The compass is drawn on the HUD and shows the player's heading. Its colors, scale, position and width can be adjusted in the mod's settings. Only the client needs it, so players join servers without installing anything extra. Forge and NeoForge builds are published for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, with 1.2.1 as the latest file for each loader, under All rights reserved, which means the code is not open source.
Key features
Heading on the HUD
A compass bar is drawn on the HUD and marks the direction the player is facing.
Adjustable appearance
Colors, scale, screen position and width of the compass can be changed to fit the interface.
Squad-inspired design
The layout takes its cues from the compass in the game Squad, adapted for Minecraft's screen.
