About this Mod

Compass to Map

Auto-registers the structures and biomes you find with Explorer's Compass and Nature's Compass as JourneyMap waypoints, the instant you find them.

Find a structure or biome with Explorer's Compass / Nature's Compass and you normally have to punch the coordinates into JourneyMap by hand. This addon does it for you — the moment the compass locates the target, a waypoint appears.

Features

  • Auto-waypoints structures (Explorer's Compass) and biomes (Nature's Compass), or both
  • Category colour-coding for villages, fortresses, monuments, etc.; modded structures get a stable hash colour so they stay distinguishable in big packs
  • Operators get a clickable /tp suggestion in the discovery message; survival players just see the coordinates
  • No items, blocks, or textures — just the automation, and it falls back to a chat message if JourneyMap isn't installed

Config (config/compasstomap-common.toml, or the in-game Mod Config GUI)

  • feature.enableStructure / feature.enableBiome — toggle each compass
  • notification.notifyOnFound — chat notification on discovery
  • appearance.colorByCategory — category colours (off = single purple)
  • appearance.persistentWaypoints — keep waypoints across restarts

Dependencies

JourneyMap waypoints work on every NeoForge and Forge build, and on Fabric 1.21.4 and newer. On the older Fabric builds (1.20.1 / 1.21.1) only the chat notification works; the discovery message itself works everywhere.

Install on the server and on each client — the server detects discoveries and tells the client, which registers the waypoint.

Free to use in any modpack. Source and issues: https://github.com/KURONAMI333/compass-to-map
