Inspired by Portal 2, this mod brings the Ping tool into Minecraft

This mod attempts to replicate that feature in a useful way, but ensure it actually has use in the Minecraft world.

How to use
Using Ping is incredibly simple. Both the server and client must have it installed. To send a Ping, simply hold down the V key, and select a ping type by either mousing over it and releasing V, or by clicking on it. A Ping will then be sent to everyone within range (Configureable).
On the experience bar (locator bar) a small icon will help you better locate the location/direction of the ping.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ping server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (26.1.2). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Ping compatible with fabric and forge and neoforge?

Ping officially supports fabric, forge, neoforge for Minecraft 26.1.2, 26.1.1, 26.1. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Ping – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Ping consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
