About this project
What does Stronghold Compass add?
Note: This is a continuation of Ender Compass since the dev and all of their projects seem to have vanished off the face of the earth, it was previously licensed as MIT so it can be legally continued.
This is forge only and I have no plans of porting to any other modloader, however if you wish to do so, the source is available.
