Maps
This mod adds map items that show terrain in HUD.
The HUD shows a player position & direction marker.
Treasure maps are like normal maps that show a red X.
In Minetest Game
A right click with a mapping kit creates a map of the area.
If you target a node, its position shows as a red X on a map.
With the X players can share coordinates or have treasure hunts.
Maps API
You can use maps.create_map_item()
to create a treasure map:
local itemstack = maps.create_map_item(pos, { draw_x = true })
Notes
maps
is similar to mcl_maps
, which is part of MineClone2.
All map items have a colormapped TGA file in their item meta.
This allows map items to continue to work in world downloads.

- Add support for mods with nodes that can show bitmaps
