What it does

A client-side Fabric mod that draws a compass bar along the top of the HUD. It shows the direction the player is facing and places saved waypoints on the bar, so a location can be checked without opening a map. Waypoints are stored per world, and the bar can be turned off when it is not needed.

The mod suits marking bases, farms, caves, portals and builds, and it can mark the spot of a death so the player can follow the compass back to it. Waypoint coordinates can be edited, and a manager screen collects them in one place. Keys bound by default include V for the compass, B for a new waypoint and M for the manager, and holding Shift views a waypoint in closer detail.

Installation requires Fabric. The mod runs on the client only, so servers do not need it. Files are published for Fabric for 26.1.2 only, with 1.1.26 as the latest file dated 2026-06-10. The code is released under the MIT License, and the project is not open source.
