Compass to Map: Xaero's Minimap & Explorer's Compass & Nature's Compass Addon

Auto-register found structures (Explorer's Compass) and biomes (Nature's Compass) as permanent Xaero's Minimap waypoints. No prompt, no edit screen, the waypoint just appears.

Compass to Map: Xaero's edition

Auto-registers the structures and biomes you find with Explorer's Compass and Nature's Compass as permanent Xaero's Minimap waypoints — no prompt, no edit screen, the waypoint just appears.

Find a structure or biome with Explorer's Compass / Nature's Compass and you normally have to add the coordinates to Xaero's by hand. This addon does it silently, the instant you find it.

Features

  • Auto-waypoints structures (Explorer's Compass) and biomes (Nature's Compass), or both
  • A brand-purple waypoint that doesn't clash with your other Xaero colours
  • Operators get a clickable /tp suggestion in the discovery message; survival players just see the coordinates
  • Duplicate-proof — re-discovering the same structure won't add a second waypoint
  • No items, blocks, or textures, and it won't crash if Xaero's is absent (it has zero compile-time reference to Xaero's and reaches it by reflection that no-ops on absence or an API change)

Config (config/compasstomapxaeros-common.toml, or the Mod Settings GUI)

  • feature.enableStructure / feature.enableBiome — toggle each compass
  • notification.notifyOnFound — chat notification on discovery (waypoint registration is independent)

Dependencies

Install on the server and on each client — the server detects discoveries and sends each one to the right player, whose client adds the waypoint. For the JourneyMap version, see the sister mod Compass to Map.

Free to use in any modpack. Source and issues: https://github.com/KURONAMI333/compass-to-map-xaeros
