Installation

Surveyor runs on Minecraft 1.21.1 with NeoForge 21.1. It needs nothing else: no Sinytra Connector and no Fabric API.

Setup	Surveyor on	Map mod on
Singleplayer	your game	your game
Multiplayer, shared maps	the server and every player	each player who wants a map
Multiplayer, server without Surveyor	your game	your game. You map on your own and nothing is shared

• Players without Surveyor can still join a server that has it. They do not receive map data.
• Surveyor alone shows nothing. Install a map mod that uses it, such as Antique Atlas.
• The first time you play a world with a map mod, Surveyor imports the Xaero's Minimap waypoints of that world.

What Surveyor records

• Terrain: for every chunk you saw, the ground, water depth, biome and light on each layer of the chunk.
• Structures: villages, temples, strongholds and others, after you stand inside one or look at it.
• Landmarks: waypoints that players place, server-wide landmarks that operators place, and automatic ones for nether portals, lodestones and the places where players died.

Surveyor keeps one exploration per player. On a server, it also shares that exploration with other players. See Playing Together.
