Frequently asked questions

How do I get a tracking compass?
Any standard compass works as a tracker, so you can simply hold one. You can also type /ptcompass to be given one, as long as you have the pt.compass permission.
How do I pick which player to track?
Hold the compass and right-click to open the target selection menu, then click the player you want to follow. The compass needle will then point toward that player's location.
Right-clicking my compass does nothing. Why?
You probably don't have the pt.track permission, which is required to use the tracker compass. Ask a server admin to grant it to you through the server's permissions setup.
How do I switch to tracking a different player?
Hold Shift and right-click with the compass to change your tracked target at any time. This is handy in manhunts or minigames when you need to swap targets quickly.
