Track Your Airship in Real-Time on the Minimap
Enable Airship Tracking
Once you've built and assembled your Create: Aeronautics airship, the mod will automatically detect it when you're within render distance. Your ship should appear on Xaero's Minimap (the small map in your screen corner) as a colored representation showing its current position and rotation.
Viewing Your Ship
The minimap displays your airship using standard Minecraft map colors, so it blends naturally with the terrain below. As you pilot your ship and it turns or moves, the map updates instantly to reflect its new position and angle. This gives you a live top-down perspective of your craft's orientation in the world.
If your ship isn't appearing:
- Ensure you're within normal render distance of the airship
- Verify the airship is actually moving or assembled as a valid Create contraption
- Check that Xaero's Minimap is enabled and not hidden
Multiple Ships
If you have several airships flying simultaneously, each will be tracked independently on your minimap, allowing you to monitor multiple vessels at once without performance issues.
