About this Mod
BlueMap Banners
A Minecraft Fabric mod that supports displaying Minecraft banners as markers on BlueMap.
This is a continuation of Banners4BM originally by Nincodedo.

Player usage
This mod supports custom-named banners. (Just like the vanilla feature of banners on map items.)
Renamed banners are shown with the customized name on BlueMap as a POI marker.
When using a map item on an existing banner (enabled by default)
- Players can use map items on banners to create the marker on BlueMap.
- Players can use map items on banners to remove the marker.
When using direct placing of banners (disabled by default)
- Players place banners and markers are instantaneously created.
Other interactions (always enabled)
- Players can break the banner by hand to remove the marker.
- External sources can break banners to remove the marker. (TNT, support block broken)

The main command is /bluemapbanners, but there is also the alias /bb you can use.
