DiscoveryPins
Customizable pin colors and automatic pinning of things you discover and interact with. Can be used as a purely client side mod or it can be installed on the server to sync some of the settings.
Deep North Notice: This mod has been updated and I've done preliminary testing but since I haven't been able to actually play through any of the new content yet I can't confirm that it pins new dungeons and the like properly. It does however still work for everything that it previously worked on!
Features
- Configure pin colors.
- Configure minimum allowed distance between auto-pins.
- - Configurable keyboard shortcut to automatically pin things within your field of view or very close to your character that are configured to be automatically pinned.
- Automatically pin dungeons when you enter them (configurable).
- Automatically pin ore when you damage it (configurable).
- Automatically pin portals when building or interacting with them (configurable).
- If the portal has a tag then it names the pin after the tag.
- Updates pin names when you change the portal tag.
- Will fail to remove the old pin if you change the pin type for portals and then change the portal tag.
- Automatically remove death pins when retrieving your tombstone (configurable).
- Automatically pin open world locations like camps and villages using the keyboard shortcut (configurable).
- Configure whether to generate death pins when inventory is empty.
- Synced settings for whether the keyboard shortcut is enabled and how far away it can trigger automatic pins.
