squaremap-banner
by FaeWulf
squaremap-banner lets a banner placed in the world appear as a marker on the squaremap world map, and it is a server-side extension of squaremap.
What it does
Banners placed in the world can be turned into map markers that show on the squaremap world map. The feature extends squaremap rather than replacing it, so squaremap and Fabric API must be installed alongside it. The idea follows the squaremap-banners plugin, which it is inspired by.
A JSON configuration file controls the options, and a list of words can be set to keep certain names off the registered world map. It runs on the server alone, so players need nothing extra to join. Files are published for Fabric and Quilt across seven release versions, 1.20.6 – 1.21.10. LuckPerms is an optional dependency for permission handling.
