Command Aliases

A lot of the commands have aliases. They are listed here.
/point add:

• /point put
• /point save

/point remove:

• /point del
• /point delete
• /point rm
• /point clear

/point to = /point set

Permissions

• compass.use - Allows use of all commands except /point reload
• compass.reload - Allows one to use /point reload

This plugin only works in regular worlds

The nether and end override the compass and have it do crazy things on the screen. I don't know of a way to fix this (if there even is a way..)

Video

WoopaGaming Made a video of this plugin. However, its commands are outdated, but its functionality is the same.

Notice

If you are going from an older version of MagicCompass to a version that supports uuids (2.0.0 or later), you should back up your config.yml just in case anything bad happens. Nothing bad should happen, and I think the plugin covers it's bases pretty well in the conversion process, but there is no such thing as perfect code. Also, if the plugin tries to convert and it finds a name that it can't find a uuid for, it will just keep the name there. The plugin only tries to update to uuids when it finds names in the config that are not in uuid format. To get MagicCompass to stop trying to do this, you will have to manually remove the entries/replace the names with their uuid equivalents.

Planned Features

• Custom messages
• Global waypoints
• Ability to have compass point to players
• Much more admin powers/capabilities
• More permission nodes

UUID Data Usage

The uuids come from https://api.mojang.com/profiles/minecraft. The ids are used only within the magiccompass plugin to keep track of user data (waypoints)
