Description

This is a Minecraft Fabric client-only mod. This mod enables a normal compass to enter a "ore finding" mode, pointing towards the nearest selected ore block.

The compass will now be able to search for:

  • Coal (Normal and Deepslate)
  • Copper (Normal and Deepslate)
  • Iron (Normal and Deepslate)
  • Gold (Normal, Deepslate and Nether)
  • Lapis (Normal and Deepslate)
  • Redstone (Normal and Deepslate)
  • Diamond (Normal and Deepslate)
  • Emerald (Normal and Deepslate)
  • Nether Quartz
  • Ancient Debris

The search is limited by a square radius of 20 blocks horizontal, -2 / +3 blocks vertical.

How to use it

Ctrl/Cmd + scroll wheel up/down while using the compass in the main hand. It will rotate between spawn mode (default) and ore searching (selected ore). From version 0.3 onwards Ctrl/Cmd + Arrow UP/DOWN is also an alias, always using the compass in the main hand.

Commands

  • [0.7+] /compassfinder lodestone [int:X] [int:Z] point to an arbitrary 2d coordinate in the current dimension. /compassfinder ls [int:X] [int:Z] is an alias

Features

  • Search for the different ores (see list above)
  • Localized ore names
  • [0.6] Distance hint on hotbar (over the compass, shown as stack count)
  • [0.7] Point to an arbitrary point
