Soul Tracker
by Uiuiuiui0815
Soul Tracker gives players several compasses and a trap that point at other players, with a Soul Tower and an Altar used to craft the parts.
What it does
The mod adds ways to track other players. A player finds a Fragment in structures such as the Ominous Vault, the Ancient City and the End City, and follows the Soul Tower to an Altar. Craft a Heavy Magnet, then combine it with a Fragment on the Altar to get a Presence Compass, which points at a random player without telling the holder who it is. A Soul Trap found in a Woodland Mansion or inside the tower can be used with a Reliquary to create a Soul Sword.
Killing a player with a Soul Sword converts a Soul Compass so that it points at that player. A compass breaks when its holder gets close to the target, and a warning sound plays for the target. Players can also be added to an avoider list, which keeps them from being tracked by either compass, and the list can be edited by adding or removing names. The mod is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. It requires Fabric API and runs on the client and the server, so both need it. Files are published for Fabric on 26.2 and 26.3, and snapshot builds are published.
