Waypoint Manager

Allows players to manage (create, edit, and teleport) waypoints with a clean UI, and display them in your map and in the compass.

Description

Waypoints

A waypoint management system for Hytale with an in-game UI.

Compass Waypoints main view

Features

  • UI-based waypoint manager - Create, edit, and remove waypoints through a graphical interface
  • Distance display - Shows distance in blocks from your current position to each waypoint
  • Auto-sorting - Waypoints are sorted by distance, closest first
  • Teleportation - Optional teleport button (Creative mode or with permission)
  • Map markers - Waypoints appear on your in-game map

Usage

Use /waypoint or /wp to open the waypoint manager.

The UI lets you:

  • Create waypoints at your current location or custom coordinates
  • Edit waypoint names and coordinates
  • Delete waypoints
  • Teleport to waypoints (if permitted)

Each waypoint shows three buttons:

  • TP (green) - Teleport to waypoint
  • EDIT (blue) - Modify waypoint
  • REMOVE (red) - Delete waypoint

Permissions

  • boffmedia.waypoints.command.waypoint — Access to the /waypoint UI. Granted by default; server admins can revoke or grant access.
  • boffmedia.waypoints.command.teleport — Required to use the teleport command/button.

Granting Permissions

  • On servers: Example commands to manage these permissions:
/perm group add Adventure -boffmedia.waypoints.command.waypoint    # revoke UI access from Adventure gamemode (Using "-" to deny permission)
/perm group add Default -boffmedia.waypoints.command.waypoint    # revoke UI access from Default group
/perm user add <UUID> boffmedia.waypoints.command.waypoint      # grant UI access to a player
/perm user add <UUID> boffmedia.waypoints.command.teleport      # grant teleport permission to a player
  • On singleplayer: Run /op self to grant yourself permissions

Commands

  • /wpm, /wp , /waypoint - Opens the waypoint UI. (If BetterMap is installed, you should use /wpm, as the commands overlap.
  • /teleport [name] - Teleport to a waypoint by name

Configuration

This plugin writes and reads a configuration file so server operators can control behavior.

  • Config file: mods/Bofffmedia_Waypoints/waypoints_config.json (created under your world save at user_data/saves/<world>/mods/Bofffmedia_Waypoints/)
  • Setting: MaxWaypoints (integer, default -1)
    • -1 means unlimited waypoints per player per world.
    • Any non-negative integer sets the maximum number of waypoints a player may create in a single world.

Example generated config:

{
    "MaxWaypoints": -1
}

After changing the config file, restart the world or reload the mod so the new value is applied.
