About this project
What does Inkwell add?
Inkwell
A world map that draws itself as you explore.
World map (M)
- 2D map in real block colors, with soft relief shading
- 3D view: keep zooming in and the map tilts into real blocks, with the game's own textures (resource packs included). Right-drag to rotate, left-drag to move
- The sky follows the time of day: sunsets, stars at night, darker terrain under the moon
- Middle click anywhere for quick actions: add a waypoint, teleport, share the location, copy coordinates
Minimap (N)
- Square or round, any corner, fixed north or rotating
- Optional 3D minimap
- Shows nearby players (their skin's face) and mobs (their own face, red frame when hostile)
- Sneaking players stay hidden
Cave mode
- Underground, the map switches to the cave you're in on its own
- Or pick a fixed height, or turn it off, from the button on the map
Waypoints
- Markers in the world: aim at one to see its name and how many blocks are left
- Track any waypoint: the HUD shows distance and direction, even when it's off screen
- Click a waypoint on the map to edit, track, teleport to or delete it
- Automatic waypoints at nether portals
Deaths
- Where you die becomes your Last death, tracked until you get back there
- Previous deaths become Old death (or turn them off and keep only the last one)
Sharing
- Share a waypoint in chat: other Inkwell players get a clickable [+ Add]
- Also recognizes waypoints shared by Xaero's Minimap users
/inkwell exportsaves your waypoints (JSON + Xaero's format) and a PNG of the whole explored map
Import
Bring your waypoints from Xaero's Minimap, JourneyMap and VoxelMap.
Commands
/inkwell · show <name> · track <name> · share <name> · add · remove · paste · import · export
Client side only, works on any server. Requires Fabric API. English and Italian translations.
