Overview

HB’s Satellites is a Minecraft mod that allows you to view distant terrain in a futuristic 3D style. The Satellite Block may be placed anywhere in the world and streams a live feed to the Controller and Display Blocks.

The Controller Block can adjust:

• Viewing area
• Viewing depth
• Viewing height

Target Controller Block

• Target any position on the map and a hint will show the exact block position
• When "Firing" the weapon, the weapon stored inside is triggered and a message is sent to the Target Receiver
• The only currently supported weapon is a Redstone torch which sets a Waypoint in the world

Target Receiver Bock

• receives the set location from the Target Controller Block and emit a redstone signal when the Target Controller "Fired"

The terrain appears as a 3D semi-holographic diorama, letting players explore and monitor vast stretches of land remotely. Hostile and friendly entities appear as pings on the satellite feed — customizable in the config file. Satellite Upgrades (Not craftable for now)
