Nexus Tactical Grid Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I connect to my team's relay server?
Press O to open mod settings, enter your relay server address in the server input field, enter a room ID that your team agrees on, then click Save Server Settings followed by Connect. Your teammates must use the same server address and room ID to sync together.
What's the difference between a room ID and a relay server address?
The relay server address is the connection point where all data passes through, while the room ID is a private channel within that server that keeps your team separate from other groups. Think of the server as the building and the room ID as your specific office inside it.
How do I place a ping for my teammates?
Press your configured ping keybind (set in Minecraft's standard Controls menu) while looking at a location, or double-click your middle mouse button. The ping will appear as a visual marker on your teammates' screens at that exact spot.
Can I remove a ping I placed by mistake?
Yes—aim your crosshair near the ping you want to remove and single-click your middle mouse button to cancel it. The ping will disappear from all teammates' screens immediately.
Why aren't my teammates' positions showing up on my screen?
Check that you're both connected to the same relay server and using the same room ID in mod settings. If positions still don't sync, verify your relay server is running and that your network connection is stable.
Do I need to manually mark mobs or does the mod track them automatically?
The mod automatically syncs mob locations across your team when they're nearby, but you can also manually place tactical pings on specific mobs to highlight them. When a marked mob dies, its marker clears automatically.
How do I share waypoints with my team?
If you're using Xaero Minimap, Xaero World Map, or JourneyMap, the mod integrates directly with these mods to share waypoints and player tracking markers. Create a waypoint in your map mod and it will sync to teammates using the same map mod.
What do the different colors mean when highlighting targets?
The mod uses color codes to distinguish target types: friendly players appear in one color, neutral mobs in another, and hostile mobs in a third. This helps your team quickly identify what you're looking at across distances.
Will this mod work with other mods that show player positions?
The mod is designed to work alongside popular map mods like Xaero and JourneyMap, but compatibility with other position-tracking mods depends on whether they conflict with the relay system. Test with your specific mod combination to be sure.
What happens if I hit the ping limit?
The mod automatically removes your oldest pings when you place new ones past the set limit, so you won't lose the ability to ping—only the oldest markers disappear to keep performance smooth.
