About this project

What does Wayfarer Minimap add?

Wayfarer

A minimap and a full-screen world map, with waypoints you can see in the world. Everything stays on your side: no server mod needed.

What it does

  • Minimap in the top right corner, north up, with the biome name and your coordinates. Zoom with = and -, turn it off with F8.
  • World map on M: drag to move, scroll to zoom, space to come back to yourself, right-click to drop a waypoint or, on one, to remove it.
  • Remembers what you have seen: the colours of every chunk you walked past are saved per world and dimension, so the map fills in as you explore.
  • Waypoints with a name and a colour, shown on the minimap, on the map and as a beam with the name and distance in the world. A death waypoint is added when you die.
  • Mob dots on the minimap: blue players, red monsters, green animals.
  • Under a ceiling (the Nether, caves) the map shows the floor you walk on, not the roof.
  • /wayfarer add <name>, /wayfarer remove <name> and /wayfarer list.
  • Config config/wayfarer.json: minimap, size, mobs, waypointsInWorld, scanRadius. Data lives in <game folder>/wayfarer/.

Needs
