ZenCompass

Radial compass that replaces your minimap in the corner of your screen.

Map icons display on the radar when you get close to them.

Designed in conjunction with the ZenMap mod, try them together for a truly immersive experience!

• Craftable compass item.
• Integrated daylight tracking ring. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west.
• Integrated wind direction ring.
• Integrated with the ship navigation HUD.
• Disabled in dungeons, getting lost is fun!
• Designed to malfunction in the Mistlands and Snowstorms for a more immersive experience.
• Highly optimized, no performance impact.
• Automatic removal of death pins when looting tombstone.

NOTE: If you want a minimap this is not the mod for you.

Client / Server Requirements

NOTE: Technically it is not required on the server. However, if it is installed on the server then it will force all clients to have it installed as well. This is to enable two modes of usage:

1. Dedicated server admins can put the mod on the server to enforce all clients to have the mod installed and sync admin configs.
2. Trusted friends can agree to run the same mods and connect through a vanilla dedicated server with no enforcement but with locked admin configs.

Client Only

This mod operates entirely client side. That means you can connect to any vanilla server with this mod installed. Other players do not need to have the mod installed.

NOTE: If you host a game session with this mod installed then it will be considered to be installed on the server since your session is the server. Therefor, all clients will be required to have it. If you don't want to require all players to have this mod then you will need to host your game in a dedicated server. You can easily download and run the Valheim Dedicated Server from Steam or host one in the cloud.
