Ping Mod FAQ

Aim at the block you want to mark and press your ping key (V by default, or F in older versions). A menu will appear with four marking options to choose from.

Pings only show to players within a certain range of you—if your teammate is too far away, they won't see it. Make sure both of you have the mod installed on your clients.

You can ping any block you can see, but the ping will only be visible to nearby teammates within the mod's range limit, regardless of obstacles between you.
