Xaero's Maps: Multiplayer+
by alinco8
Players who run Xaero's Minimap and Xaero's World Map together on a server can use Xaero's Maps: Multiplayer+ to extend those maps with shared features.
What it does
Xaero's Maps: Multiplayer+ adds multiplayer features to Xaero's Minimap and Xaero's World Map. Map data can be generated on the server, which covers areas that players have not loaded yet and keeps the generation safe. Connections to an external server can sync the map outside Minecraft, for use cases that need a map beyond the game.
Waypoint sets are synced automatically, so additions and deletions reach every player. Waypoints can be shared directly in game chat by copy and paste, or passed outside Minecraft as text. Server owners can also manage waypoint sets so that the server controls them.
The mod needs Fabric API on Fabric, Kotlin for Forge on Forge, Fabric Language Kotlin on Fabric, plus Xaero's Minimap, Xaero's World Map and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL). Mod Menu is optional. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. It is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 24 release versions, 1.20 – 26.3, and is open source under the MIT License.

The Minimap is not affected. If you want the World Map layer feature back, you'll have to give up cave syncing: set syncCaves to…
