Description

Thanks to MapAtlases for the original idea & project structure!

🌍 Features

Atlas is a new item that can be crafted with a slimeball / honey bottle, a map / empty map and a book. It will render a minimap when open in the inventory or hotbar!

  • You can add more maps with more sticky material, or for free using a cartography table.
  • You can also merge and clone atlases on the cartography table.
  • You can remove maps with shears at the cartography table.

Other than that, atlases will work exactly like normal maps do.

🧭 DYNAMIC COMPASS

  • The Minimap HUD now requires a Compass somewhere in your inventory (excluding containers like bundles) to rotate with the player. This replaces the old config by giving a diegetic option!
  • The cardinals also depend on the presence of a compass.
  • These changes pair really well with Serilum's GUI Compass. :)

📕 OPEN/CLOSE MECHANIC:

  • Replacing the "Lock" mechanic, Atlases will now change texture when you shift+right click!
  • When open, they will show the Minimap HUD, when closed the HUD will be hidden. This again gives a diegetic way to configure what you see from this mod :)

🗺️ CARTOGRAPHY TABLE OVERHAUL

  • Shift-clicking Atlases, Maps, Paper and even Shears now works correctly on the cartography table. This allows to use it more efficiently!
  • Improvement on the shears menu as well.
  • For consistency and balance, adding maps to your atlas without the cartography table requires one sticky item (Slimeball or Honey Bottle) per Map. Meaning you can "only" put 4 maps at a time on a crafting table, at a minor cost.

📍 EXTRAS

  • Cardinals UI do not render in the Nether, to match vanilla compass behaviour.
  • Changed the colour of the north cardinal to red to hint compass use.
  • Added compatibility with Fancy World Animations.
  • Improved texture for the Atlas Minimap HUD!
  • Maps in your atlas now update when you open the atlas rather than at a given amount of ticks.
