Wayfinder: Trailbound

Crafting a Wayfinder builds a personal Trailbook that holds up to eight destinations, each with a name, a colored marker and an icon. The needle animates while the item is held and points toward the active marker or the next step of a recorded route. Guidance reports the distance to the destination and whether it lies above or below the player, and proximity particles and sounds grow more noticeable as the player closes in.

Pressing G starts a recording: the player explores normally while the item remembers the path behind them, and pressing G again begins a return that leads back along every stored step, climbs and drops included, until the original starting point is reached. Pressing G during the return pauses and resumes guidance without losing progress. The mod is meant for exploring caves, crossing dimensions and recovering lost locations, and it does not teleport the player. Wayfinder: Trailbound requires Fabric API and runs on the client and the server, so both need it. Files are published for Fabric only, for game version 1.21.11, with 1.2.0 as the latest file.
