Frequently Asked Questions

Can I set the HUD compass to appear only when I carry a vanilla compass?

Yes, in Advanced Compass settings under Compass show mode, you can choose MAIN_HAND, BOTH_HANDS, or ANY_SLOT instead of ALWAYS_ON so the bar only renders when you hold or carry a vanilla compass.

How do I create and manage waypoints on the compass bar?

Use the Create waypoint and Open waypoint list actions in the Controls menu to save new locations, delete old ones, or enable Death waypoint to automatically mark where you died.

Does Advanced Compass support waypoints from minimap mods?

Yes, the Modded Waypoints setting integrates markers from Xaero's minimap, VoxelMap, and Antique Atlas, with filters for SHOW_ENABLED, SHOW_DISABLE, SHOW_ALL, and HIDE_ALL.

How do I prevent mob icons from showing through cave walls or cluttering the bar?

Enable Hide behind to conceal mobs blocked by terrain, and turn on Group entities or Hide overlapped icons to merge nearby creatures and reduce icon clutter.

How do I stop the vanilla boss health bar from covering the compass?

Enable the Move bossbar (Move vanilla bossbar below the compass) option in Advanced Compass settings, or adjust the Y Offset slider.
