MapFrontiers
This mod is an addon for Journey Map that allows you to divide the map into regions and assign them names and colors.
To create and manage frontiers you have to use a Frontier Book. When you open a book for the first time, it will be assigned to the current dimension and will allow you to create your first frontier. It also provides some data and an image.
In creative mode you can find the book in the tools tab.
You can craft it with this recipe:
You can also craft the personal frontier book:
You can edit the mod settings and change who can edit, create and delete frontiers! Default key: F8 (I accept suggestions for the default key).
Current limitations
- Doesn't support frontiers that intersect themselves.
- Sometimes frontiers disappear (bug in JourneyMap 1.12). Opening the book usually fixes the problem.
New version 1.4.0
You can have personal frontiers!
You can share them with others and allow them to modify.
Need Journey Map 1.12.2-5.7.1.
You can see this and my other projects in alejandrocoria.games.

Will there ever be a 1.15 version of this?
In reply to alphyshedge:
It is likely that after the next version I will update it to 1.15. I am not spending much time on the mod, things are not going very well in my country, even before the pandemic, so I cannot assure you that it will be soon.
I really appreciate the interest, if anyone would like to give me more support, please consider joining my patreon.
it would be nice to have like a wand tool to mark the locations or mark them on the journeymap itself with like "lasso tool" or "pen tool" from photoshop
In reply to Flowyan:
Editing on the JourneyMap map was my first plan, but the JourneyMap API doesn't allow that. Maybe in the future I can do it.
Wow this is such a cool idea! Keep up the good work.
It looks like it complements this mod fairly well:

In reply to StormbringerGT:
Thank you!
this is a very cool looking mod; however, personally I think there should be a few different modes so that people can enjoy the mod in more that one way, such as a towny like system for some servers where you have wars to claim a "disputed territory" (where two frontiers overlap) and configurable upkeep for land, or a land claim system so that you can claim land with a frontier and not have to worry about griefing or having someone steal from you, as well as a completely clientside mode for organizational purposes (marking bases and the like) also i really hope you update the mod soon! :)
In reply to sky_peanutbutter:
Thank you very much for your comment!
Those are good ideas. I will be implementing several things over time, but there are also other big things to implement (a 1.15+ version for example). At the moment I cannot promise that I will implement things shortly. That's why I started a Patreon, to be able to spend more time on the mod.
Thanks for this mod, any way can you also add features like every time we enter that assigned frontier it will pop up in any ways showing the given name of that claimed frontier, and once it is claimed it CANNOT be claimed by other players. And lastly a "flaglet" or let me name it "FStone" once place in area considering a connecting setup of frontier instead of flying and open the book and click "add vertex" again and again, in that way players gonna need some vanilla stone assigned as "frontier stone" instead. Only open the book for creating new vertex and open it again after placing ALL desired fstone to click finish.
Well just a suggestion, still thanks to this mod awesome idea.
In reply to sandytigley:
The notice that you entered a frontier is something I have planned. On the "FStone" I do not understand what is the advantage. If you have to walk to each place to add the stones, it is the same as walking to each place and using the book as now.
In reply to meme_sapiens:
Thanks dont mind my suggetions its just something I am thinking on too much playing modds,
In reply to sandytigley:
Thank you for your interest in the mod.
When i open the book there is only written "index" , what should i do?
In reply to CelophyTwich:
There should be a button that says "New". Try exiting and re-entering the world and tell me if that fixes it.
In reply to meme_sapiens:
I solved changing the options, thanks!
In reply to CelophyTwich:
It is a bug that I am having trouble reproducing in the development environment. Thanks for letting me know.
In reply to CelophyTwich:
Bug fixed in the new version!
Update for 1.15.2?
In reply to moderngamingworld:
Sorry, but I don't know when I'm going to do it. I have several features in mind that I want to add before that.
Looks amazing, cant wait for a permission system like griefprevention
