TerraTile

A simple Minecraft mod for BuildTheEarth.

What does it do?

TerraTile renders map tile images onto the Minecraft world to speed up outlining buildings. This effectively reduces the need for to tpll corners of buildings, which may be inaccurate. This mod is very similar to BTETerraRenderer, but it is made for 1.20+ Fabric and very simple to use.

What map provider does it use?

Due to TOS, Google Maps is not permitted to be used with this mod. By default, Singapore's OneMap is used. However, it is only limited to the Singapore Region. You can try OpenStreetMap, but do note its inaccuracy in outlines. Fork this repo to change the map provider.

Usage

Start the proxy server

Ensure you have Node.js installed. Follow the instructions in the /proxy folder to start the server. Do note it caches the map images, which may take up space.

Setup location

First, you need to set the location of where you are going to build. Pick the LatLng in Google Maps and enter /terratile select $LAT $LNG, where $LAT and $LNG are the coordinates.
