Structure Compass Mechanics

The Structure Compass operates through a dedicated Graphical User Interface (GUI) and real-time tracking mechanics.

Selecting a Structure

To use the compass, the player must right-click while holding the item. This action opens a selection menu containing a list of every structure available in the current dimension.

• Search Bar: Located at the top of the GUI, this allows players to filter structures by name (e.g., typing "Village" or "Bastion").
• Structure List: A scrollable list displaying the internal names of all registered structures.
• Start Search: After selecting a structure from the list, clicking this button initiates the tracking process.

Tracking and Navigation

Once a search is active, the compass provides several pieces of information:

1. The Needle: The red needle on the item icon will point toward the nearest instance of the chosen structure
2. Distance Display: While the compass is in the player's main hand or off-hand, the distance to the target (in blocks) is displayed in the action bar above the hotbar
3. Status Messages: If the structure cannot be found within the search radius, the game will display a "Structure not found" message in the chat

Resetting the Compass

To clear the current target and stop the tracking, players can Shift + Right-click with the compass in hand. This will reset the needle to its default spinning state, allowing for a new search to be initiated.
