About this Mod

Adds a sextant so you can measure angles and calculate distances with said angles.

This mod is originally meant to be used with a mod that disables the F3 overlay (for example no f3) because the angle shown in the overlay makes this mod a lot less useful.

Frequently Asked Questions

Sextant 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 (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Sextant compatible with fabric?

Sextant officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.20.1. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Sextant – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Sextant 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.
