Lighthouses & Seafaring

Working lighthouses with rotating beams that light up at night and in the rain, buoys that bob and blink, a Nautical Chart with every lighthouse and a Sea Compass that always brings you back to port. Java + Bedrock.

Lighthouses & Seafaring

Bring your coastline to life.

  • Lighthouse Lamp: put it on top of a tower. At night and in the rain it lights up with two rotating beams you can see from far away, and sounds a foghorn in the rain.
  • Click the lamp to make it your home port.
  • Buoys (red, green, yellow): use them on water, even deep water. They bob on the waves and blink in their color at night.
  • Sea Compass: hold it to see the lighthouse name, the distance and an arrow showing where to turn.
  • Nautical Chart: your position, your course, your home port and every lighthouse with distance and direction. Pick one to set a course, go back home or stop navigating.
  • 7 achievements, including Homeward Bound (sail back home from 500 blocks away) and Storm Watch.
  • English, Portuguese and Spanish.

Recipes

  • Lighthouse Lamp: 3 gold ingots on top; glass, sea lantern, glass in the middle; 3 copper ingots at the bottom.
  • Buoy (x2, each color): barrel + red, green or yellow dye + glowstone dust + iron nugget.
  • Nautical Chart: 3 paper + ink sac + blue dye.
  • Sea Compass: a compass with 4 copper ingots around it (in a cross).

Install

Java 26.3: put the data pack in your world's datapacks folder and enable the resource pack (additional file). Rename the lamp on an anvil to name your lighthouse; the Sea Compass needle itself points to it. /function lnav:give gives you 2 lamps, 4 buoys of each color, the chart and the compass.
A Bedrock 26.50 version is also available (separate project).
