SimpleMap
by KSmc's Team
SimpleMap is a Forge minimap mod for Minecraft 1.20.1 that shows the surrounding terrain and marks positions the player saves.
What it does
Players see a small map of the area around them. The default size is 64x64, and a map size item or the configuration file changes it. Marked coordinates are placed on the map, and the player can set them in-game, press F8 to create a new one, or open a saved list with F7. From that list, a click on TP GOTO sends the player to the spot through Baritone, while EDIT and DEL change or remove an entry. The TP GOTO option requires Baritone to be installed.
The map marks the player with a cross. Hostile mobs appear in one color and non-hostile mobs and animals in another. The configuration file controls what appears beside the map, including coordinates, time, the current biome and other information. The map takes longer to render on large render distances, so players who notice slowdown can lower the distance to suit their setup.
SimpleMap is released under the MIT License and is open source, with a GitHub repository for its code. Forge is the only loader it supports, and the build is published for 1.20.1 only. The mod is client-side only, so a server does not need it.
