DirectionHUD
A multi purpose coordinates HUD mod. Fully customizable HUD with features to save coordinates, log deaths, and player tracking!
Quick answer
Which DirectionHUD release should I use?
DirectionHUD 1.8.4.0+26.2 targets 26.2 with folia, paper, purpur. Do not install it on the client. It must be installed on the dedicated server. 1 required mod needs a matching file.
Where it goes
Is DirectionHUD required on the client, server, or both?
Do not install it on the client. It must be installed on the dedicated server.
This file is marked server-only.
What else does DirectionHUD 1.8.4.0+26.2 need?
1.8.4.0+26.2. Change the file and its required mods may change too.
Install OtterLib, Fabric API first, but 1 required mod has no matching file for this setup. Do not mix loader builds to force a match.
We only count dependency files that match this setup. A file for another loader does not fill the gap.

About this project
What does DirectionHUD add?
DirectionHUD
DirectionHUD is a fully customizable Minecraft Fabric mod that enhances the vanilla navigation experience.
With the mod, you can save coordinates, track other players, see death locations, all with full customization with the /hud and /destination commands.
Help localize DirectionHUD on Crowdin!

Where does the mod work? - DirectionHUD both works on client and server, but for now the client side only supports single player & DirectionHUD servers. As with anything, that can change with time.
How do I set custom destinations? - You can use /dest set to set a destination, but the main commands for the mod are /hud and /destination, if you are stuck try one of them out!
Why does it feel like a plugin? - DirectionHUD was originally a plugin, but I am currently working on making it feel more like a mod!
