Structure Seeker
by Kootryne
Structure Seeker turns a compass into a locator for major Minecraft structures, so a player holding one can find the nearest matching structure in the world.
What it does
Holding the Structure Compass open, a player drops a structure token into the first slot and a diamond into the second to start a search. The diamond is the fee; the token selects which structure to look for. The compass then points straight to the nearest matching structure, and the needle is followed until the place is reached.
Tokens cover the overworld, where a Totem of Undying leads to a Woodland Mansion, a Prismarine Block to an Ocean Monument, a Tripwire Hook to a Jungle Pyramid and Crying Obsidian to a Ruined Portal. The Nether has tokens for its strongholds, and the End has one for the sky-side secrets. Players who prefer a fair route to rare structures over wandering aimlessly or entering commands are the audience this mod is built for.
The mod is published for NeoForge only, on 1.21.8. It runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it, and it is not open source; its license is All rights reserved. It is intended for existing worlds and modpacks alike.
Key features
Compass locating
A compass locates the nearest structure matching a chosen token and points the way to it.
Token and diamond cost
Each search takes one structure token and a small diamond payment, placed in the interface's two slots.
Overworld structures
Tokens exist for the Woodland Mansion, Ocean Monument, Jungle Pyramid and Ruined Portal in the main world.
Nether and End searches
Tokens also locate Nether strongholds and End structures, so searches continue past the overworld.
