A few of us were talking on the mine the other night and the consensus was: Compasses which point to spawn are not much use how we play but compasses which point North would be kinda handy. Apparently it's an option in bukkit. If no one strongly disagrees, could you flick that on? , , , , , , , , , , `' (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) \ \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) ''`>-,--”-”---”-”---”-”---”-”---”-”---- ,'.*''`

If you can find the option I need to change I'll happily do it. Can't seem to find what to change yet.

The latter is how I actually expected the compass to work, so I'm all for that. I do like the idea of a magical compass that always points home though. In real life that is. Would definitely come in handy.

Don't we all have a piece of string we follow when we're pissed? I always seem to end up home.

Is it worth me checking the log? Or was it more along the lines of "there's a setting that Ant can change to make the compass point north"?

I believe he tried it in console and it said "you do not have permission to blah blah". Search the logs for 'north', should do it. , , , , , , , , , , `' (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) \ \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) ''`>-,--”-”---”-”---”-”---”-”---”-”---- ,'.*''`

Easily testable by moving in a circle around /home or /spawn while facing the same direction. FORJ Forum \| piXY \| Soda \| QuickSlide

He's talking about /compass which is either a core server or bukkit command. It's currently on the server but returns a permissions error. Since we've got the information with /getpos I don't think we really need /compass as well, but if it doesn't take you long to do then it'll stop Lucy whining so might as well do it. `3.1415P265E589T932E846R64338`

I never use getpos because... I can just look where the sun is or whatever. Or if I'm underground I'll press f3. This is a different thing, this is an in-game thing. It's much easier to glance as the compass in my hotbar than to open the console and type a command.

So you mean the actual compass item. I think there is a plugin that can do that, not sure if it's a setting I can change with Bukkit. If it was I doubt there would be a plugin.
