Structure Eyes

by Icywhenhot

Structure Eyes lets a thrown Eye of Ender point at any structure the player chooses, including modded dungeons, villages and fortresses.

What it does

Structure Eyes turns the Eye of Ender into an item that locates a configured structure. A player throws it and the flying eye shows the item's own texture, following the same flight arc and drop behavior as the vanilla Eye of Ender. Each eye can be pointed at a single structure, at a whole group through a structure tag, or at a structure in another dimension, such as the Nether, the End or a modded dimension. Using an eye in a dimension where its target does not exist gives a short hint rather than silence.

Setup can be done through an in-game config menu opened from the Mods screen, through datapack JSON files for advanced control, or by editing a single config file. Edits take effect on reload, so the game does not need to be relaunched. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files are published for NeoForge only, for game versions 1.21.1 and 26.1.2, with 1.0.0 for 26.1.2 as the latest file. The code is released under the MIT License, but the project is not open source.

Key features

  1. Structure-finding eyes

    Eyes of Ender can be assigned to find villages, fortresses, modded dungeons or any other structure.

  2. Reusable or consumed

    Each item can be set to use up the eye or keep it, with an optional cooldown between uses.

  3. Structure tags

    A tag list lets one item match a whole group of structures, while a single entry matches just one.

  4. Per-item control

    Consume behavior, cooldown and messages can differ for each item through JSON files.

  5. Live reload

    Configuration edits are picked up on reload, with no need to relaunch the game.

Questions

Does Structure Eyes need to be installed on the server?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.

Can one eye find structures in another dimension?

Yes. Items can point at structures in the Nether, the End or a modded dimension, and using an eye in the wrong dimension gives a message.

Do edits need a game restart?

No. Edits are picked up on reload, so the game does not need to be relaunched.

Turn any item into an Eye of Ender for any structure. Structure Eyes lets you assign an item — vanilla or modded — to point toward a structure of your choice.
