Description

🧭 Stronghold Compass HUD

Stronghold Compass HUD is a sleek, modern, and lightweight client-side Fabric mod designed to make finding Strongholds and End Portals seamless and intuitive!

Say goodbye to tedious manual coordinate calculations. With a dynamic on-screen navigation arrow, distance tracking, and automatic Ender Eye triangulation, reaching the End has never been easier.

✨ Features

  • 🎯 Dynamic Direction Arrow: Real-time HUD compass indicator pointing straight toward the target Stronghold.
  • 📏 Distance & Coordinates Tracker: Displays remaining distance in meters along with exact target (X, Z) coordinates.
  • ⛏️ Dig Down Alert: Automatically informs you when you are directly above the Stronghold so you know when to dig!
  • 🔮 Automatic Triangulation: Throw 2 Eyes of Ender from different spots, and the mod automatically calculates the exact intersection coordinates.
  • 🎨 Minimal & Non-Intrusive HUD: Clean, color-coded visual indicator that blends right into vanilla Minecraft.
  • 🛡️ 100% Client-Side: No server installation required. Works on multiplayer servers without triggering anticheat or requiring server mods.

🎮 How to Use

  1. Press H to toggle the Stronghold HUD on / off.
  2. Throw an Eye of Ender once.
  3. Walk about 50–100 blocks away in any direction.
  4. Throw a second Eye of Ender.
  5. The triangulation algorithm will automatically compute the Stronghold coordinates and lock your HUD compass onto the target! (Alternatively, you can manually set known coordinates via /sh target <X> <Z>).
