Tired of Manhunt compasses that glitch out, disappear on death, or just don't point right? ManhuntButItWorks is a simple, reliable Paper plugin (1.21.x) that gives you a proper tracking compass for speedrunner vs. hunters gameplay.
How to Use
-
Get the compass
Run/manhuntcompass(or shorthand/mhc) -
Choose your target
Right-click the compass to cycle through online players (each click = next player) -
Track them down
The needle points to their exact location and updates every second as they move
No offsets, no vanishing items — it just works.
Features
- Real-time player tracking (needle always accurate)
- Easy right-click cycling through players
- Compass stays with you after death
- Can't drop or lose it accidentally (use
/removecompassto get rid of it) - Quick help menu with
/manhunthelp
Commands
/manhuntcompass— Give yourself a tracking compass/manhuntcompass <player>— Give one to someone else (OP only)/removecompass— Remove the compass from your inventory/manhunthelp— View all commands and info
Great for casual Manhunts, streams, or private servers. Lightweight, no config nonsense — drop it in and play.
Tested on Paper 1.21.x (likely works on Purpur/Folia too).
