Just Minimap

This is an add-on that adds a minimap to your screen in Minecraft Bedrock, along with a Map item you can open, zoom and write notes on. Nothing fancy, it just does what a minimap should do.

Minimap

It shows the area around you in the corner of the screen. Mobs and players show up as little faces (or plain dots if you prefer, you can turn the faces off).

You can choose the size (small, medium or large), the shape (round or square) and which side of the screen it sits on. You can also make the map rotate with you, show your coordinates, change how far it sees and how detailed it looks, and switch to a cave view when you are underground.

 

Explorer's Map

Craft it with paper, a compass, a feather and an ink sac. It fits in the 2x2 crafting grid, so you can make it without a crafting table. New players also get one in the last hotbar slot the first time they join.

Hold it and right-click (or tap) once, and a bigger map opens. There are buttons on the screen to zoom in and out, move around, and jump back to where you are. You are the red mark, other players are white.

 

 

Notes

Tap the pencil button on the map and a piece of old paper opens. Write whatever you want to remember, like coordinates or where your base is.

The note is saved on the map item itself, so every map has its own notes. Drop it, trade it or put it in a chest and the notes go with it.

 

Settings

Everything above is in one form. Sneak and right-click with the World Map to open it, or tap the gear button on the world map screen.

 

Good to know

  • No Beta APIs or experiments needed, it does not disable achievements. Tested on PC and mobile, in the Overworld, Nether and End, and with two players.
  • Notes are limited to 500 characters per map, plain characters only. If the map is destroyed, the notes are gone too.
  • The map only shows areas that are loaded or already explored. On weaker devices, new areas may fill in slowly while you move around.
  • The World Map item ID is jm:world_map if you want to give it with a command.
