Explorer’s Compass Mod (1.21.8, 1.20.1) is an essential tool for adventurers and completionists who want to explore every corner of their Minecraft world without aimless wandering. Much like Nature’s Compass for biomes, this mod allows you to locate any structure from vanilla temples and villages to modded fortresses with pinpoint accuracy.

By using a simple GUI interface, the Explorer’s Compass lets players select a target structure type and begin the search instantly. It displays real-time data such as the distance and coordinates of the nearest instance, and it updates dynamically as you move. Whether you’re hunting a Woodland Mansion, a Bastion Remnant, or a modded dungeon, this compass eliminates all the guesswork.

Features:

  • Easy Structure Selection
    Right-click the Explorer’s Compass Mod to open a GUI with a searchable list of all structures (including modded ones).
  • Live Navigation & HUD Info
    Displays the direction, distance, and coordinates of the nearest matching structure directly on the HUD.
  • Spawn Fallback
    If no target structure is currently found, the compass will point to the world spawn by default.
  • Shift + Right-Click Reset
    Easily reset the compass and clear any active tracking with a shift + right-click.
  • Customizable Settings
    Change search radius, sample count, and blacklist unwanted structures via config files to optimize performance.
  • Supports Modded Structures
    Automatically includes structures added by other mods, making it an essential utility for modpack players.
  • Multiplayer Support
    Fully functional on servers with matching mods installed. Each player can search independently.
