A minimalist yet immersive compass overlay that shows your current direction, angle, coordinates and waypoints.
Echoes of Adventure: Compass
> *The mod was reworked and had the old name "Echo Compass HUD"*
Echoes of Adventure: Compass has evolved from a simple directional overlay into a comprehensive navigation suite. Designed to enhance your exploration without breaking immersion, it provides a flexible waypoint system that keeps you oriented across every dimension.
While primarily a client-side mod, installing it on a server unlocks advanced features like global markers and team tracking for a coordinated multiplayer experience.
✨ Key Features
