Simple Tracking Compass

Simple Tracking Compass is a Fabric mod that adds a Compass to the top-left corner of your screen.
It lets you track other players, which can be especially useful in manhunts.

Features

Shows a Compass in the HUD. (Can be hidden)
Lets you track other players with it.
Adds a Selection Screen located in the Pause Menu.
Also, accessible with /selector command.

Extra Features

If the mod is installed on the server (or if you are playing on a LAN world hosted by someone with the mod), you have the ability to track players even if they are outside your render distance.

⚠️ This is impossible on unmodded servers because Minecraft itself does not allow sending player position data using packets unless the mod is present on the server.
