🧭 Looter's Compass
Makes finding loot containers from the Lootr mod easier. No more missing out on nearby loot :D
🆕 What does it add?

This mod adds a new item called the Looter's Compass.
It points to the nearest loot containers from the Lootr mod, which has not yet been opened by the player.
It has a maximum search radius of 32 blocks horizontally and 16 blocks vertically by default (configurable).
It works with any kind of Lootr's loot containers (chests, barrels, shulker boxes, chest minecarts ...).
When right-clicking with the Looter's Compass in the player's hands, the currently targeted loot container will be highlighted (like the Glowing effect does it) for a few seconds.
If no container is found, an idle animation will be shown.
Searching for the loot containers happens on the client-side, which means that server performance will not be hurt in any way.
This is what it looks like ingame:

💡 Tips for modpack makers
I think it's a good idea to incentivize exploration in the early game by disabling the crafting recipe for the Looter's Compass using the config option or something like KubeJS.
You could then include a quest which rewards the compass when the player gets the "Centennial" achievement from Lootr (which requires the player to open 100 loot containers first), or just enable the config option that automatically rewards the compass when this advancement is made.
